Description
Summary:This is not a comprehensive account of the Molecular Basis of Bacterial Metabolism, but rather a presentation of new, exciting progress on sometimes exotic reactions of specifically bacterial, mainly anaerobic metabolism. The topics of the 17 contributions reach from the biochemistry of methanogenesis, via anaerobic radical reactions, metal biochemistry in hydrogen and nitrogen metabolism, conversions of light- and redox energy, to the regulation of metabolic adaptation, and the attempts to bioengineer novel pathways for the degradation of xenobiotica. These proceedings represent a highly progressive field of overlapping disciplines, comprising microbiology and molecular genetics, chemistry of biomimetic interest, and biophysics. The reader will gain insight into the impact modern technologies have on microbiological research today.
