内容説明

This illustrated book covers the most important aspects concerned with microbial bioactive secondary metabolites and provides basic information on their biosynthetic pathways in relation to growth and differentiation of their producers, as well as information on the physiological and genetic regulation of their production. Further, the best-known and most important secondary microbial metabolites are discussed, and data on structure-bioactivity relationships, mechanisms of action, and the biochemical and genetic basis of resistance are also included. The greatest potential use of this book would be as a starting point from which one could be directed to other sources if more details were necessary. It is mainly intended for students and researchers in the fields of microbiology, biochemistry, chemistry of natural organic compounds, toxicology, pharmacology, human and veterinary medicine or environmental sciences.
