Integrated Genomics: A Discovery-Based Laboratory
Course introduces the excitement of discovery to the
basic molecular biology laboratory. Utilizing up-to-date molecular
biology protocols and a basic experimental design, this text offers
experience with three different model systems. Students will become
familiar with the simplicity and power of single-celled organisms,
Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as
they search for genes that interact and function within the
nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
Incorporated throughout the course are exercises designed to
offer students familiarity with the wealth of bioinformatics data
that can be accessed on the World Wide Web. Following completion of
interaction studies within the yeast, the course is designed to
allow students to examine the functional consequences of reducing a
gene's function within the multicellular worm that is both
simple and inexpensive to maintain within a laboratory. The
inclusion of alternative experiments allow for flexibility in
determining the ending date or goal of the laboratory, as well as
working within the available budget and resources of most any
classroom environment.
Further striking features of this title are:
* An accompanying Web site providing PowerPoint slides, plus
links to the internet, and regular updates as bioinformatics
databases evolve and methods improve. href="http://www.wiley.com/go/caldwell">www.wiley.com/go/caldwell
* Inclusion of modern genomic/proteomic technologies such as the
yeast two-hybrid system and RNAi
* Detailed experimental protocols and easy access to
instructional materials
This discovery-based laboratory course provides excellent
practical training for those pursuing career paths in biomedicine,
pharmacy, and biotechnology.

Autoren-Porträt von Guy Caldwell, Shelli Williams, Kim Caldwell
Guy A. Caldwell, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in theDepartment of Biological Sciences at The University of Alabama in
Tuscaloosa, where since 1999, he has held an undergraduate
professorial appointment from the Howard Hughes Medical
Institute. In 2001, Dr. Caldwell was named a Basil O'Connor
Scholar of The March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation for his
research into the molecular basis of childhood birth defects of the
brain. Dr. Caldwell is a recipient of grants from The March of
Dimes, National Institutes of Health, the Dystonia Medical Research
Foundation, American Parkinson's Disease Association,
Parkinson's Disease Foundation, and the National Parkinson
Foundation. In January 2003, The Caldwell lab was selected as one
of only 11 worldwide to represent the research goals of The Michael
J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research in their Protein
Degradation Grant Initiative. For his combined teaching and
research efforts, Dr. Caldwell was also chosen as the recipient of
a 2003 CAREER award from the National Science Foundation, the most
prestigious honor for young faculty bestowed by that organization.
He is the author of 2 editions of a widely adopted textbook in
biotechnology sold worldwide in 3 languages by Harcourt. He
currently teaches courses in Molecular Genomics, Neuronal Signaling
Mechanisms, General Biology, and an acclaimed seminar on the
societal impact of the Human Genome Project.
Shelli N. Williams, B.Sc., is a doctoral candidate in the
Department of Biological Sciences at The University of Alabama in
Tuscaloosa, where she has attended the university as an
undergraduate and graduate student since 1997. Following her
early graduation magna cum laude from the university, Ms.
