Protein Secretion in Bacteria
Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
Protein Secretion in Bacteria, authored and edited by an international team of experts, draws together the many distinct functions and mechanisms involved in protein translocation in one concise tome. This comprehensive book presents updated information on all aspects of bacterial protein secretion encompassing:
- Individual secretory systems–Sec, Tat, and T1SS through the newly discovered T9SS
- Mechanisms, structures, and functions of bacterial secretion systems
- Lipoprotein sorting pathways, outer membrane vesicles, and the sortase system
- Structures and roles of surface organelles, including flagella, pili, and curli
- Emerging technologies and translational implications
Protein Secretion in Bacteria serves as both an introductory guide for students and postdocs and a ready reference for seasoned researchers whose work touches on protein export and secretion. This volume synthesizes the diversity of mechanisms of bacterial secretion across the microbial world into a digestible resource to stimulate new research, inspire continued identification and characterization of novel systems, and bring about new ways to manipulate these systems for biotechnological, preventative, and therapeutic applications.
