Edited By Titia de Lange, The Rockefeller University; Vicki Lundblad, The Salk Institute for Biological Sciences; Elizabeth Blackburn, University of California, San Francisco

© 2006 • 576 pp., illus., index
Paperback • £31.00 • ISBN 978-087969810-2

An up–to–date survey of the current exciting state of telomere biology. Telomeres—specialized structures found at the ends of chromosomes— are essential for maintaining the integrity of chromosomes and their faithful duplication during cell division. Chapters in this volume cover telomere structure and function in a range of organisms, focusing on how they are maintained, their roles in cell division and gene expression, and how deficiencies in these structures contribute to cancers and other diseases and even aging.

Studies of the cells and genes of the nematode C. elegans havebecome a cornerstone of current biology. A classic 1988 Cold SpringHarbor monograph,The Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans,described the basic genetics, anatomy and developmentof the organism. Now, in that authoritative tradition, comes C. elegansII -- not a second edition but a book that breaks new ground and definesthe current status of the field, providing a detailed molecularexplanation of how development is regulated and the nervous systemspecifies varied aspects of behavior. This volume is a must for anyinvestigator doing worm studies but it has been written and rigorouslyedited to illuminate for a wider community of investigators in celland molecular biology who should know how new knowledge of C. elegansrelates to their own specialty.
