GENETIC CONTROL OF ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE—A COMPETITION MODEL FOR REGULATION OF GENE ACTION

Abstract

HE past two decades have witnessed tremendous advances in the science of genetics; determination of the structure of the genetic material, deciphering the genetic code, etc. An important problem still remaining concerns the mechanism(s) by which gene action is regulated in the development and differentiation of higher organisms. The elegant induction/repression scheme of JACOB and
