Woher wir das alles wissen: die entscheidenden Experimente

  • Chapter
Genregulation

  • 27 Accesses

Zusammenfassung

Im 1.Teil dieses Kapitels sollen ein paar der wichtigsten Experimente beschrieben werden, die uns die nötigen Grundlagen für das weitere Verständnis liefern. Wir wollen dann einige Modelle aus Kap.1 und 2 mit ausgewählten Experimenten untermauern. Die genauen Daten finden sich in der Literatur, die am Ende des Kapitels angegeben ist, und in darin zitierten weiteren Veröffentlichungen. Die experimentellen Grundlagen von Kap. 3 sollen uns nicht beschäftigen; der Leser kann sie anhand der allgemeinen Literaturangaben am Ende jenes Kapitels nachschlagen.
