Conditioned taste aversion (CTA) is a powerful defense mechanism prote cting animals against repeated consumption of toxic food. CTA has a nu mber of unusual properties that challenge the basic tenets of traditio nal learning and memory theory. In the past decade several pivotal dis coveries have considerably advanced our understanding of the neural pr ocesses underlying CTA, and opened new possibilities for their analysi s at the molecular and cellular levels. This book, written by three of the world's leading researchers in the subject, provides a comprehens ive and up-to-date summary of...

This book serves as an introduction to targeted genome editing, beginning with the background of this rapidly developing field and methods for generation of engineered nucleases. Applications of genome editing tools are then described in detail, in iPS cells and diverse organisms such as mice, rats, marine invertebrates, fish, frogs, and plants. Tools that are mentioned include zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and CRISPR/Cas9, all of which have received much attention in recent years as breakthrough technologies. Genome editing with...

This book serves as an introduction to targeted genome editing, beginning with the background of this rapidly developing field and methods for generation of engineered nucleases. Genome editing with engineered nucleases allows us to precisely change the target genome of living cells and is a powerful way to control functional genes.
