Arthur Kornberg was an American biochemist whose pioneering research illuminated the molecular mechanisms of life. His work focused on enzyme chemistry and discoveries in the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Kornberg's findings significantly advanced the understanding of DNA replication and the processes of heredity. His scientific contributions have shaped modern molecular biology and genetics.





Nobel laureate Arthur Kornberg brilliantly chronicles the saga of a small biotech start-up, the key players, the painstaking development of the perfect product and the forces affecting its success or failure. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the biotechnology business.
The second edition of thes work has been completely revised to reflect current research and interpretations. Arthur Kornberg and his coauthor Tania A. Baker have created a second edition that provides the reader with up-to-date coverage of DNA replicaiton and related cellular processes - including summaries of recent work on replication in eukaryotes and bacteria.
