Microbial Stress Biology - (Developments in Microbiology) (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Microbial Stress Biology offers a comprehensive understanding of the adaptation strategies of microbes at the biochemical and molecular level in response to stressful conditions and details the molecular mechanisms that enable microbial organisms to survive and persist under these adverse circumstances. The book discusses a wide array of topics related to microbial adaptation, covering fundamental biological responses to stress, microbial adaptations at cellular, genomic, and proteomic levels, as well as specific adaptations and regulations to various environmental stress factors such as pH fluctuations, chemicals, and extreme thermal conditions. The book also highlights the application of omics technology and predictive modeling in understanding microbial stress biology for various fields including biotechnology, medicine, bioremediation, and industrial processes. Microbial Stress Biology is an informative resource for those in microbiology, molecular biology, biotechnology, and other related fields to better understand how microbes are able to sense and respond to distinct stressors at both the molecular and cellular levels.
