RNA Metabolism and Gene Expression in Archaea

The book "RNA Metabolism and Gene Expression in Archaea" offers a comprehensive examination of the regulation of transcription and translation in Archaea, as well as evolutionary insights into RNA processing pathways. It covers the entire spectrum from RNA synthesis to degradation and highlights the implications of gene expression. In 13 chapters, key topics such as the modification and maturation of RNAs, the function of small non-coding RNAs, and the CRISPR-Cas defense system are discussed. Archaea, which have long been regarded as exotic microbial extremophiles, are increasingly recognized as significant model organisms for studying molecular mechanisms conserved across all three domains of life. This book serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested in the regulation of gene expression in Archaea and RNA metabolism in general.
