    CELL BIOLOGY A Comprehensive Treatise Volume 4 Gene Expression: Translation and the Behavior of Proteins Volume 4 of Cell Biology: A Comprehensive Treatise provides a detailed and authoritative presentation of the important features of gene expression pertinent to the production of proteins. It emphasizes well-estab¬ lished facts and concepts on the cellular events associ¬ ated with the production of proteins, from the trans¬ port of new transcripts to cellular associations and activities of finished polypeptides. Topics discussed include: • various transport mechanisms • machinery for the synthesis of polypeptides and the regulation of synthesis • role of cell structures in translation and processing • mechanisms of polypeptide processing • regulation of the posttranslational behavior of pro¬ teins This definitive reference work will be of interest to graduate students and researchers interested in this major area of cell and molecular biology.
