This book collates and reviews recent advances in the microbial
metabolism of amino acids, emphasizing diversity - in terms of the
range of organisms under investigation and their natural ecology -
and the unique features of amino acid metabolism in bacteria,
yeasts, fungi, protozoa and nematodes. As well as studying the
individual amino acids, including arginine, sulfur amino acids,
branched-chain amino acids and aromatic amino acids, a number of
themes are explored throughout the work. These include: -
Comparative issues between the metabolism of microbes and those of
higher organisms, including plants and mammals - Potential for drug
targets in pathways of both biosynthesis and degradation of amino
acids - Relationship between amino acids or associated enzymes and
virulence in parasitic pathogens - Practical implications for food
microbiology and pathogen characterization - Future priorities
relating to fundamental biochemistry of microrganisms, food quality
and safety, human and animal health, plant pathology, drug design
and ecology As the volume of research into the metabolism of amino
acids grows, this comprehensive study of the subject is a vital
tool for researchers in the fields of biological, medical and
veterinary sciences, including microbiology, biochemistry, genetics
and pathology. This book is also essential for corporate
organizations with active research and development programmes, such
as those in the pharmaceutical industry.
