Magnetoreception and Magnetosomes in Bacteria (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Schüler, Dirk

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume details recent developments in magnetotactic bacteria research. It includes reviews on the formation and organization of magnetosomes, the genes controlling magnetosome biomineralization, and new cryogenic techniques to visualize novel cytoskeleton structures. Coverage also describes potential nanobiotechnological applications of the magnetosome crystals.
