Cellular Microbiology

Bacteria-Host Interactions in Health and Disease

By Brian Henderson et al.

Beschreibung

Die Zellmikrobiologie ist ein neues Forschungsgebiet der Mikrobiologie, das sich mit der Wechselwirkung zwischen Zellen und Mikroben - insbesondere zwischen Eukaryotenzellen und Bakterien - befaßt. Diese Einführung eignet sich ideal für Studenten mittlerer Semester: Anerkannte Experten stellen einen konsistenten Bezug zwischen molekularer und Zellbiologie und Krankheitsbildern des Menschen her.

Autor

Brian Henderson is Professor of Biochemistry at University College London. He started his research career as a cell biologist, migrating to become an immunologist then pharmacologist with six years experience in the pharmaceutical industry. In the early 1990s studies of bacteria-host interactions identified a bacterial molecular chaperone, chaperonin 60, as a potent signalling molecule able to induce osteoclast formation and bone remodelling. This was Henderson's introduction to protein moonlighting and he has spent the past twenty years exploring the roles of bacterial and human moonlighting proteins in human health and disease. Michael Wilson is a Professor of Microbiology in the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences at University College London and is Director of the Eastman Centre for Microbial Diseases within this university. He holds a PhD in Microbiology from University College Galway, Ireland, a Doctor of Science from the National University of Ireland and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists. He has written and/or edited eight books and published more than 270 scientific papers in the fields of microbiology and infectious diseases. Rod McNab is the author of Cellular Microbiology: Bacteria-Host Interactions in Health and Disease, published by Wiley. Alistair J. Lax is the author of Cellular Microbiology: Bacteria-Host Interactions in Health and Disease, published by Wiley.
