1. RNA-Composition and Base Pairing -- 2. Architecture of RNA -- 3. Small Catalytic RNA -- 4. The Spliceosome: A Large Catalytic RNA -- 5. A Genomic Perspective on RNA -- 6. The mRNA and the New Vaccines -- 7. Riboswitches: Sensors and Regulators -- 8. Small Non-Coding RNA, miRNA in Gene Regulation -- 9. CRISPR-Cas Systems, The science and ethics of gene manipulation -- 10. Transcription.
This highly illustrated textbook provides an essential overview on RNA architecture and function, it offers insights into the RNA basics and also explains novel RNA technologies, such as CRISPR-Cas and their applications. In addition, the mRNA based vaccine technology, which has long been tested, also before the COVID-19 pandemic, is discussed and students receive a basic understanding of this important medical application. The textbook is written by Prof. Grover in collaboration with her students and has an easily accessible style. The book provides a great tool for young researchers and students in biology, biomedical engineering or biochemistry, looking for a compact introduction or refresher work on RNA, including the newest findings and technologies. It is an ideal starter to learn about several RNA specific topics and to research them further.
