内容説明

Details how these proteins work while providing a review of the field. * Describes all aspects of the biology of toxins, including their synthesis and secretion from the bacterial cell, their travels to and into the target host cell, and their modes of attacking the host cell machinery. * Illustrates how bacterial toxins, each of which has distinct individual properties, often share mechanisms of secretion, membrane transport, and enzymatic action. This title is published by the American Society for Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
