RNA: A Laboratory Manual

So much has been learned about RNA in the past ten years that the ability to purify, analyze, and manipulate RNA molecules is now essential in all kinds of bioscience. Initiating RNA research can be intimidating but the new book RNA: A Laboratory Manual provides a broad range of up-to-date techniques presented in a functional framework, so that any investigator can confidently handle RNA and carry out meaningful experiments, from the most basic to the highly sophisticated. Originating in three of the field's most prominent laboratories, this manual provides the necessary background and strategies for approaching any RNA investigation, as well as detailed protocols and extensive tips and troubleshooting information. It is required reading for every research laboratory in the life sciences.

RNA Worlds
From Life's Origins to Diversity in Gene Regulation

The book reviews our understanding of two RNA worlds: the primordial RNA world before DNA, in which RNA was both information store and biocatalyst; and the contemporary RNA world, in which mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, siRNA, miRNA, and a host of other RNAs operate.

"[T]he plasticity of RNA stemming from ist 2' hydroxyl group and single-stranded nature, which permits diverse folding in contrast to ist storage molecule cousin, DANN, continues to fascinate," write the editors, John F. Atkins, Raymond F. Gesteland, and Thomas R. Cech, in the book's preface.
