Contents Notes
Structure and function -- Growth -- Membrane bioenergetics: the proton potential -- Electron transport -- Photosynthesis -- The regulation of metabolic pathways -- Bioenergetics in the cytosol -- Central metabolic pathways -- Metabolism of lipids, nucleotides, amino acids, and hydrocarbons -- Cell wall biosynthesis -- Inorganic metabolism -- Cb1s metabolism -- Fermentations -- Homeostasis -- Solute transport -- Protein export and secretion -- Signaling and behavior. This textbook, designed for courses on microbial physiology/bacterial metabolism, presents microbial metabolism in the context of the chemical and physical problems that cells must solve in order to grow. It provides a modern perspective on the diversity of microorganisms.
