Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Only six years have passed since the precursor to this book, 'Fungal Lipid Biochemistry,' was published. It seemed to satisfy the need of a central comprehensive reference to which students and researchers could turn for information on the lipid composition and metabolism in fungi. This book was concerned with the distribution and biochemistry of lipids in fungi, and in many instances lipid metabolism was presented in a comparative context. The principal lipids covered were the aliphatic hydrocarbons, fatty acids, sterols, acylglycerols, phospholipids, and sphingolipids. The final two chapters of the book, contributed by Drs. William Hess and Darrell J. Weber, summarized fungal metabolism and ultrastructure during fungal spore germination and sporula tion. The information in that book has been completely re-written, re-organized, expanded, updated, and is now pre sented under the altered title of LIPID BIOCHEMISTRY of Fungi and Other Organisms. Some of the noteworthy additions in clude (1) an expanded presentation of lipid classification, (2) brief description of the historical development of re search on fungal lipids, (3) expanded presentation of lipid production during vegetative growth, and in relation to nutrient utilization, (4) the relatively new interpretation of the yeast fatty acid synthetase as a multifunctional enzyme rather than multienzyme complex, (5) the chemistry, distribution, and biosynthesis of polyprenols and carote noids, and (6) condensation of the information on spore germination and sporulation into one chapter with greater emphasis on the involvement and role of lipids in these processes.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - With the development of highly sophisticated analytical techniques and instrumentation during the past 15-20 years, progress in the field of lipid biochemistry has been greatly accelerated. Within this period, there has been an increasing volume of information concerning the distribution and metabolism of lipids in animals and, more recently, in plants. The fungi have played an important role in studies concerning the biochemistry of lipids and, in this text, they are treated separately from the photosynthetic plants. This book is concerned with distribution and bio chemistry of lipids in fungi. The text is divided into three sections, beginning with an introduction to fungallipids which includes total lipid abundances in fungal cells and cell fractions and cultural conditions influencing lipid production. In the second section, each chapter deals with the distribution andjor metabolism of a single lipid class as it occurs in fungi. Comparisons with plants and animals are also included. Six major lipid classes are covered which include the aliphatic hydrocarbons, fatty acids, sterols, triacylglycerols, glycerophosphatides, and sphingolipids. The third section contains two chapters concerned with the physiology and ultrastructure of fungal spore formation and germination with particular emphasis on lipids. Although this book is not intended to be a comprehensive review of the literature, the information presented is compiled from over 1000 articles, most of which were published during the past 10-12 years.
