Popis: | Since 1952, specific reversible changes in chromosomal structure have been correlated with the activity of genes (Beermann, 1952). This phenomenon, called puffing, indicated that the cell is able to control metabolic functions by turning genes on and off. Considerably later the concept of the genetic code and its actualization by the process of transcription and translation was to enter common consciousness. |
