Cellular microbiology

Abstract

"A comprehensive examination of this burgeoning area of important research. • Covers bacterial human pathogen genomes, structure and dynamics of the host cell membrane, study of prokaryotic biology using genome-wide approaches, cell biology of virus infection, and use of simple nonvertebrate hosts to model mammalian pathogenesis. • Acquaints scientists and graduate-level students with a valuable source of reference in an emerging field. • Integrates the two important fields of cell biology and microbiology."
