Klappentext Discussion of current knowledge of the regulatory systems that govern bacterial gene expression. Zusammenfassung DNA sequencing! the use of microarrays! and proteomics! will transform our ability to describe bacterial genes and patterns of gene expression. This book discusses current knowledge of the regulatory systems that govern gene expression! providing potential means of controlling bacteria clinically! and exploiting them industrially! or environmentally! in the future.
