Summary

• Familiarity with the mechanisms of eukaryotic gene regulation is now essential for scientists and students in both clinical and basic disciplines, and transcription factors are central to such regulation.
• Revised and completely up-to-date, the second edition of Eukaryotic Transcription Factors includes additional sections, including 'TBP, the universal transcription factor?', 'The MYC oncogene' and 'Anti-oncogenes and Cancer', as well as a major expansion in the discussion of transcriptional activation, and particularly transcriptional repression.
