Progress in nucleic acid research and molecular biology. Volume 52 /

Praise for the Serial: "Full of interest not only for the molecular biologist - for whom the numerous references will be invaluable - but will also appeal to a much wider circle of biologists, and in fact to all those who are concerned with the living cell."--British Medical Journal Key Fe...
