Description for Glycoscience and Microbial Adhesion
Hardback. Editor(s): Lindhorst, Thisbe K.; Oscarson, Stefan. Series: Topics in Current Chemistry. Num Pages: 186 pages, 6 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSBF; PSG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 504.
bacterial carbohydrate recognition are conveyed, covering Gram-positive as well as Gram-negative bacteria, in Chapter 4 Streptococci and Staphylococci, and in Chapter 5, carbohydrate binding specificities of Helicobacter pylori. In Chapter 6, "Bitter sweetness of complexity," the collected reflections on mic- bial adhesion are expanded by a perspective on a broader impact of glycosylation on cellular adhesion, motility and regulatory processes, paralleling the complexity of N-glycan structures on cell surfaces. It highlights particularly how structural details of N-glycans have been causally related to pathological scenarios, with a focus on ?(1,6)-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase. In the final chapter, biofilm formation is reviewed, covering knowledge about ... Read more
