Molecular Biology of Bacterial Viruses

By Gunther Siegmund Stent

Molecular Biology of Bacterial Viruses is a comprehensive book written by Gunther Siegmund Stent, a renowned molecular biologist. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the molecular biology of bacterial viruses, also known as bacteriophages. It covers various topics related to the structure, replication, and function of bacteriophages, including their interactions with bacterial hosts and the molecular mechanisms of their infection.The book is divided into three parts. Part one covers the basics of bacteriophage biology, including their classification, morphology, and genome structure. Part two focuses on the molecular mechanisms of bacteriophage replication, including DNA replication, transcription, and translation. It also covers the regulation of gene expression and the molecular mechanisms of bacteriophage assembly and maturation.Part three of the book covers the interactions between bacteriophages and their bacterial hosts. It includes topics such as the molecular mechanisms of bacterial resistance to bacteriophages and the molecular mechanisms of bacteriophage-mediated bacterial lysis.Overall, Molecular Biology of Bacterial Viruses is an essential resource for molecular biologists, microbiologists, and anyone interested in the molecular biology of bacteriophages. It provides a comprehensive overview of the field and is written in a clear and concise manner, making it accessible to both experts and non-experts alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
