Zusammenfassung: In the past two decades, great progress has been made in the understanding of copper as a bioelement. The book summarizes the current knowledge of copper toxicity, homeostasis and resistance in bacteria, in which proteins like copper ATPases, copper chaperones and copper-responsive regulators of gene expression play major roles. The author also discusses the metallation of cuproenzymes. The evolution of the use of copper by cells and of copper-homeostatic proteins are is also considered in this BriefZusammenfassung: Copper - a modern bioelement -- The essence of copper homeostasis -- Copper toxicity mechanisms -- Copper homeostasis in Gram-positive bacteria -- Copper homeostasis in Gram-negative bacteria -- Chalkophores, the 'siderophores' for copper -- Copper loading of cuproenzymes -- Contact killing of bacteria by metallic copperPPN: PPN: 1026848792Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-CMS | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXC
