This book addresses multiple aspects of biological clocks in
prokaryotes. The first part of the book deals with the circadian
clock system in cyanobacteria, i.e. the pioneer of bacterial
clocks. Starting with the history and background of cyanobacteria
and circadian rhythms in microorganisms, the topics range from the
molecular basis, structure and evolution of the circadian clock to
modelling approaches, Kai systems in cyanobacteria and
biotechnological applications. In the second part, emergent
timekeeping properties of bacteria in microbiomes and bacteria
other than cyanobacteria are discussed. Since the discovery of
circadian rhythms in cyanobacteria in the late 1980s, the field has
exploded with new information. The cyanobacterial model system for
studying circadian rhythms (Synechococcus elongatus), has allowed a
detailed genetic dissection of the bacterial clock due to
state-of-the-art methods in molecular, structural, and evolutionary
biology. Cutting-edge research spanning from cyanobacteria and
circadian phenomena in other kinds of bacteria, to microbiomes has
now given the field another major boost. This book is aimed at
junior and senior researchers alike. Students or researchers new to
the field of biological clocks in prokaryotes will get a
comprehensive overview, while more experienced researchers will get
an update on the latest developments.
