Golden gate cloning : Methods and protocols
Provides an overview of the latest protocols that cover the full range of in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches to help researchers plan, design, and perform Golden Gate cloning experiments. The chapters in this book cover topics such as Golden Gate cloning of standardized parts; modular DNA construct design for high-throughput Golden Gate Assembly; Golden Gate cloning of Synthetic CRISPR RNA spacer sequences; Golden Gate cloning in Actinobacteria; and YeastFab cloning of toxic genes and protein expression optimization in yeast.
Chemoinformatics : Theory, Practice, & Products
Chemoinformatics: Theory, Practice & Products covers theory, commercially available packages and applications of Chemoinformatics. Chemoinformatics is broadly defined as the use of information technology to assist in the acquisition, analysis and management of data and information relating to chemical compounds and their properties.The book also provides a summary of currently available, state-of-the-art, commercial Chemoinformatics products, with a specific focus on databases, toolkits, and modelling technologies designed for drug discovery.
Biotechnologies for plant mutation breeding : Protocols
This book offers 19 detailed protocols on the use of induced mutations in crop breeding and functional genomics studies, which cover topics including chemical and physical mutagenesis, phenotypic screening methods, traditional TILLING and TILLING by sequencing, doubled haploidy, targeted genome editing, and low-cost methods for the molecular characterization of mutant plants that are suitable for laboratories in developing countries. The collection of protocols equips users with the techniques they need in order to start a program on mutation breeding or functional genomics using both forward and reverse-genetic approaches. Methods are provided for seed and vegetatively propagated crops (e.g. banana, barley, cassava, jatropha, rice) and can be adapted for use in other species.
