Bugs as Drugs
Associations between the composition of the intestinal microbiome and many human diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, and cancer, have been elegantly described in the past decade. Now, whole-genome sequencing, bioinformatics, and precision gene-editing techniques are being combined with centuries-old therapies, such as fecal microbiota transplantation, to translate current research into new diagnostics and therapeutics to treat complex dise...

by Fritz H Kayser, F Kayser, K Bienz, J Eckert, and R Zinkernagel
Phylogenomics
Phylogenomics: Foundations, Methods, and Pathogen Analysis offers a deep overview of phylogenomics as a field, compelling recent developments, and detailed methods and approaches for conducting new research. Early chapters introduce phylogenomic taxonomies of organisms and pathogens, phylogenomic networks, phylogenomics of virus virulence, and ancient DNA analysis, with a second section offering methods, detailed descriptions and step-by-step instruction in genome assembly and annotation, horizo...
Photosynthetic Prokaryotes (Biotechnology Handbooks, #6)
Considers the features common to bacteria that need light to grow, focusing on those features important in nature and useful in industrial applications. Because the species are scattered across the taxonomic chart, they have little in common except the physiology of photosynthesis and ecological dis
This volume covers practical important topics in the analysis of protein sequences and structures. It includes comparing amino acid sequences to structures comparing structures to each other, searching information on entire protein families as well as searching with single sequences, how to use the Internet and how to set up and use the SRS molecular biology database management system. Finally, there are chapters on multiple sequence alignment and protein secondary structure prediction. This boo...

The Genus Yersinia (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, #529)
For the eighth time the yersiniologists all over the world gathered together when the International Symposium on Yersinia was organized by University of Turku and Turku Microbiology Society in Turku, Finland. Over 250 delegates from 28 countries attended the Symposium. The Symposium logo (Picture 4, next page) presents a bacteriophage attached to the surface of the bacterium. One can easily imagine that most of the aspects covered in this Symposium are included in the logo: the bacteriophage gen...
Viruses: Biology, Application, and Control is a concise textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students covering the essential aspects of virology included in biomedical science courses. It is an updated and expanded version of David Harper’s Molecular Virology, Second Edition. Focusing on key mechanisms and developments, Viruses presents many new recent scientific advances, including virus evolution, emerging infections, virus extinction, control of infections, antiviral drugs, gene t...
Dr. Hilary Koprowski is the pioneer of live polio vaccine, the first researcher to advance the diagnostic and therapeutic use of monoclonal antibodies, and the developer of the "gold standard" rabies vaccine. This biography chronicles his distinguished career and life's work in the field of microbiology. A world-reknowned maverick in biomedical research, Koprowski's research methods were often considered controversial and even radical. Nonetheless, he acquired key positions in many research orga...
Cellular Microbiology (ASM Books)
Cellular Microbiology is a new upper-level textbook which describes the interactions of microbes and pathogens in the wider context of the cell properties, helping the reader to envisage different possibilities for his or her own problem while detailing known specific examples. It provides microbiologists moving into cell biology with a deep understanding of the field as well as a broader knowledge of possible interactions between their favourite organism and mammalian cells. It also provides c...
Molecular Genetics of Mycobacteria
A new specialist research-level monograph, discussing mycobacterial genetics in the context of the whole genome. An essential reference that describes the recent advances in the field and a useful guide for the new generation of researchers working in the post-genomic area.
