Regulation of Gene Expression and Brain Function [PDF ebook] 

Gene expression converts the information coded by our genesinto proteins. These determine the structure and function ofan organ such as the brain. Itis therefore an essentialprocess, linking molecular genetics with neurochemistryand behavioral neuroscience. This volume presents a didacticapproach to the understanding of the basic processes of geneexpression and their involvement in certain brain diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia. Generouslyillustrated, the contributions provide a valuable outline ofthis key aspect of molecular neurobiology and clinicalneuroscience.
