Biology is the study of living things. The classical approach might
be described as holistic and descriptive, whereas the modern
molecular - proach aims to be investigative, reductionist, and
mechanistic . Genes contain all the information for the structure
of all living things ; thus, the understanding of how genes are
regulated is an important step toward understanding the nature of
living things. The study of gene regulation has been made more
tractable by the design of simple expe- mental models in which a
single gene can be isolated from the milieu of the organism. The
new science of molecular biology has introduced techniques that
permit the design of such experimental models. In - sence, the
genome of the organism is dissected in such a manner that specific
genes may now be introduced into an appropriate cell line .
Subsequent analysis of the proteins expressed from the genes under
study results in the identification of the regulatory DNA sequences
.
