Author: Marc Solioz Full Title: Copper And Bacteria: Evolution, Homeostasis And Toxicity Publisher: Springer; 1st ed. 2018 edition (June 24, 2018) Year: 2018 ISBN-13: 9783319944395 (978-3-319-94439-5), 9783319944388 (978-3-319-94438-8) ISBN-10: 3319944398, 331994438X Pages: 88 Language: English Genre: Chemistry: Organic Chemistry File type: EPUB (True), PDF (True) Quality: 10/10 Price: 58.84 € In the past two decades, great progress has been made in the understanding of copper as a bioelement. The book summarizes the current knowledge of copper toxicity, homeostasis and resistance in bacteria, in which proteins like copper ATPases, copper chaperones and copper-responsive regulators of gene expression play major roles. The author also discusses the metallation of cuproenzymes. The evolution of the use of copper by cells and of copper-homeostatic proteins are is also considered in this Brief. ------------- Our members see more. Join us!
