Developmental Biology: Proceedings of a Director's Sponsor Fund-UCLA Symposium, Held at Tamarron, Colorado, March 12-19, 1989Eric H. Davidson, Joan V. Ruderman, James W. Posakony This work examines rules, system properties and mechanisms underlying developmental gene regulation in a broad range of organisms. It covers the thoughts and theories, experimental inventions, strategies and successes of recent investigations into developmental processes in organisms ranging from yeast and fungi to higher eucaryotes. Some of the specific topics covered include: calcium, cell cycle control, the role of protein kinase |
