Genetics of Steroid Biosynthesis and Function (Modern Genetics) by J.I. Mason

Steroids are among the most widely prescribed drugs for humans, and steroid signaling pathways are present in vertebrates, plants, insects and fungi, presenting new avenues for biotechnological intervention. Genetics of Steroid Biosynthesis and Function focuses on the genetic and cellular aspects of mammalian steroid hormones with particular attention to inherited gene lesions.
