The Biochemistry of Archaea (Archaebacteria) By: Kates, M.; Kushner, D.J.; Matheson, A.T. Publisher: Elsevier Science Print ISBN: 9780444817136, 0444817131 eText ISBN: 9780444817136, 9780080860862, 0080860869 Pages: 582 Format: PDF Available from $ 72.95 USD SKU 9780444817136 In the last 10 years, considerable information has accumulated on the biochemistry of archaea. In this volume, the subject as a whole is treated in a comprehensive manner. The book brings together recent knowledge concerning general metabolism, bioenergetics, molecular biology and genetics, membrane lipid and cell-wall structural chemistry and evolutionary relations, of the three major groups of archaea: the extreme halophiles, the extreme thermophiles, and the methanogens. Subjects included are: the evolutionary relationship of these microorganisms to all other living cells; special metabolic features of archeaea; protein structural chemistry; cell envelopes; molecular biology in archaea including DNA structure and replication, transcription apparatus, translation apparatus, and ribosomal structure; and a final chapter on the molecular genetics of archaea. This comprehensive scope ensures its usefulness to researchers, and stimulates further study in this rapidly developing field. Download eBook Free: https://ouo.io/B3dIgk
