An Introduction to Human Molecular Genetics

By Ann Johnson

Human genetics is the branch of biology concerned with the study of inheritance in humans. One of its sub-fields, human molecular genetics, focuses on examining the functions and structures of human genes at the molecular level. It utilizes tools from various disciplines like genetics and molecular biology, taking a multidisciplinary approach. Human molecular genetics is applied in both developmental biology research and the treatment of genetic diseases. Several techniques employed within this field include forward genetics, reverse genetics, and DNA replication analysis. This book attempts to understand the critical aspects that fall under the discipline of human molecular genetics and how such aspects have practical applications. It is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of molecular genetics. This textbook will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
