As the amount of information in biology expands dramatically, it becomes increasingly important for textbooks to
distill the vast amount of scientific knowledge into concise principles and enduring concepts.As with previous
editions, Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition accomplishes this goal with clear writing and beautiful
illustrations. The Sixth Edition has been extensively revised and updated with the latest research in the field of cell
biology, and it provides an exceptional framework for teaching and learning.
The entire illustration program has been greatly enhanced.Protein structures better illustrate structure뻜unction
relationships, icons are simpler and more consistent within and between chapters, and micrographs have been refreshed
and updated with newer, clearer, or better images. As a new feature, each chapter now contains intriguing openended
questions highlighting 밯hat We Don뭪 Know,?introducing students to challenging areas of future research. Updated
end-of-chapter problems reflect new research discussed in the text, and these problems have been expanded to all
chapters by adding questions on developmental biology, tissues and stem cells, pathogens, and the immune system.
