"Mechanisms in Transcriptional Regulation provides a concise discussion of the fundamental concepts in transcription and its regulation. Beginning with an overview of RNA polymerases and the general transcriptional machinery, this book goes onto cover the mechanisms of transcriptional activation, the histone code hypothesis, the epigenetic control of transcription, and combinatorial control in signaling and development."--Jacket.
