Polyamines in Fungi: Their Distribution, Metabolism, and Role in Cell Differentiation and Morphogenesis
Autor Laura Valdés-Santiago, José Ruiz-Herreraen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 oct 2019
The book contains data on the distribution of polyamines, their physiological functions, mechanism of synthesis and regulation, phylogenetic analyses of the enzymes involved in their synthesis, their use as possible targets for the control of fungal diseases, and possible biotechnological and medical applications.
Based on work generated by the authors in their laboratory over many years, the book contains all the basic information to understand the similarities and differences of polyamine metabolism in eukaryotes. Additionally, it provides an up-to-date account of the contribution and potential use of fungi as models for the basic study of polyamines in comparison with other organisms.
