Description for Molecular Aspects of Host-pathogen Interactions
hardcover. Reports the latest advances in defining the molecular basis of infection in both bacterial and viral systems. Editor(s): McCrae, M. A.; Saunders, Jon R. (University of Liverpool); Smyth, C.J. (Trinity College, Dublin); Stow, Nigel D. (Medical Research Council Virology Unit, Glasgow). Series: Society for General Microbiology Symposia. Num Pages: 373 pages, index. BIC Classification: PSG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 228 x 152 x 25. Weight in Grams: 795.
An understanding of the relationship between a pathogen and its host is essential for the development of effective disease control measures. This volume focuses on interactions at the molecular level, specifically between the proteins of the infectious agent and the host that has been invaded. Both viral and bacterial systems are considered, with specific examples illustrating the rapid advances being made in defining the molecular mechanisms underlying infection.

Reviews for Molecular Aspects of Host-pathogen Interactions
'What a feast! This is a book which provides not only a series of comprehensive position papers on the state-of-the-art in one of the most rapidly developing - and trendy - areas in microbiology today, but a set of meaty reviews which should also be in the hands of those of us who dabble in other areas like molecular epidemiology ...
