In this book, leading senior scientists and young researchers review the current key topics in cyanobacterial cell biology to provide a timely overview. Topics covered include: historical background, cell division, the cell envelope, the thylakoid membrane, protein targeting, transport and translocation, chromatic acclimation, the carboxysome, glycogen as a dynamic storage of photosynthetically fixed carbon, cyanophycin, gas vesicles, motility in unicellular and filamentous cyanobacteria, cellular differentiation in filamentous cyanobacteria, and cell-cell joining proteins in heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria. This cutting-edge text will provide a valuable resource for all those working in this field and is recommended for all microbiology libraries.
