Study of Microbial Physiology and Genetics

Description

An introduction to cell structure and synthesis of cell components is provided, followed by detailed discussions of genetics, metabolism, growth, and regulation for anyone wishing to understand the mechanisms underlying cell survival and growth. How do microorganisms function? Microbial physiology deals with the details of the bio-molecules and the sum of the chemical reactions that occur within the body of the microorganisms with respect to the synthesis (anabolism) and breakdown (catabolism) of most compounds. Microbial Genetics, however, deals with their structure, organization, transmission and function of genes, and the origin of variation in them with reference to microorganisms. This book “Study of Microbial Physiology and Genetics” leads to a greater depth of understanding of our world and works with other disciplines to create new technologies and medicines.
