| Description: |
In recent years, researchers have discovered a completely new type of signaling mechanism based on c-di-GMP (also known as bis-(3',5')-cyclic diguanylic acid or cyclic diguanylate). This newly recognized second messenger is strongly associated with the transition between the motile and sessile states of many bacteria. |
| Synopsis: |
A comprehensive reference on the state of the science for both experienced researchers and for those who are interested in discovering its many promising applications. * Examines c-di-GMP signaling from a variety of angles, beginning with an introductory chapter that compares c-di-GMP to the better-known second messenger cAMP. * Recounts the discovery of c-di-GMP, explains the important role of bioinformatics in the development and continued evolution of the field, and describes the fundamental structure, function, regulation, and integration of c-di-GMP pathways. * Explores the role of c-di-GMP in such diverse processes as flagellar biogenesis and motility, extracellular polysaccharide biosynthesis, biofilm development, virulence, and innate host immunity. This title is published by the American Society of Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories. |
