Description: Prokaryotic Metabolism and Physiology by Byung Hong Kim, Geoffrey Michael Gadd Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Our biosphere is shaped by vast numbers of different prokaryotic microorganisms which show extremely diverse metabolic capabilities. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the metabolic processes that occur in bacteria and archaea, and the key processes that determine their roles in the environment, biotechnology and human health. Publisher Description Vast numbers of different prokaryotic microorganisms shape the biosphere, with diverse metabolic capabilities. Determination of genome sequences for a wide range of bacteria and archaea now requires an in-depth knowledge of prokaryotic metabolic function to give biochemical, physiological and ecological meaning to the genomic information. This new edition describes up-to-date knowledge of the key metabolic processes that occur under different conditions, and the cellular processes that determine prokaryotic roles in the environment, biotechnology and human health. Essential for students of microbiology, applied microbiology, biotechnology, genomics and systems biology, this advanced textbook covers prokaryotic structure, composition, nutrient transport, biosynthesis and growth. Newly characterised metabolic pathways are included, as well as the latest understanding of metabolic regulation and stress responses. Additionally, the link between energetics, growth and survival is discussed as well as the maintenance of genetic integrity by the bacterial immune system.
