Cellular Ecophysiology of Microbe: Hydrocarbon and Lipid Interactions

Beschreibung

This fully updated new edition provides an overview on the advances in understanding microbial responses to hydrocarbons. The book is organized in 5 parts: * Problems of Hydrophobicity, Bioavailability * Sensing, Signaling and Uptake * Problems of Solventogenicity, Solvent Tolerance * Problems of Feast or Famine * Hydrophobic Modifications of Biomolecules Topics covered include mechanisms of sensing, hydrocarbon tolerance and degradation as well as an overview on hydrophobic modification of biomolecules. Other chapters are dedicated to issues related to the reduced bioavailability of hydrocarbons, which differentiates this class of compounds form many others, but which is of central importance to understand the ecophysiological consequences.  This book is essential reading for any laboratory engaged in this field.

Autor

Emanuele Biondi earned his PhD in Florence (Italy) working on  Sinorhizobium meliloti. During his postdoc at Harvard University and then MIT he worked on Caulobacter crescentus cell cycle focusing on signal transduction, discovering how cell cycle controls stalk biogenesis and proposing the first complete regulatory model of Caulobacter cell cycle. In 2010, he joined the French CNRS, and he’s now working in Gif sur Yvette at the Institute for Integrative Biology of the Cell (I2BC). The Biondi lab has been investigating how cell cycle is regulated in C. crescents and S. meliloti, aiming to elucidate general principles by which bacteria coordinate expression of genes and phosphorylation cascades with asymmetrical cell division and cell differentiation.
