About this book

The aim of this book is to review the substantial body of work that has been published concerning transcription by pol III, the largest and most complex of the eukaryotic RNA polymerases. A vast literature exists concerning transcription by pol III. The first edition of "RNA Polymerase III Transcription," which was written in 1993, provided the only comprehensive review of all aspects of this important field that has ever been published. Progress has been rapid since 1993 and the new edition of "RNA Polymerase III Transcription" incorporates all the recent developments and brings the reader a highly detailed analysis of the current state of the field.
