Building on the huge success of previous editions, Medical Microbiology 18/e will inform and inspire a new generation of readers. Now fully revised and updated, initial sections cover the basic biology of microbes, infection and immunity and are followed by a systematic review of infective agents, their associated diseases and their control. A final integrating section addresses the essential principles of diagnosis, treatment and management. An unrivalled collection of international contributors continues to ensure the relevance of the book worldwide and complimentary access to the complete online version on Student Consult further enhances the learning experience.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) form a universal enzyme family that catalyse the reduction of ribonucleotides to their corresponding deoxyribonucleotides. Ribonucleotide reduction provides the sole biological means for de novo synthesis of the building blocks of DNA, making it an essential cellular function. Sequence and structural data indicate that ribonucleotide reduction has evolved only once during evolution [1, 2] and all RNRs make use of a common thiyl radical-based mechanism for catalysis [3].
Given that the propensity to synthesise deoxyribonucleotides is essential for DNA replication, the operational differences between classes of RNR suggest that the type of RNR any given organism carries will have an impact on the environmental conditions in which that organism can grow and reproduce. The effect on the biochemistry of ribonucleotide reduction of environmental parameters such as iron-, cobalt- and oxygen-availability may thus impact our understanding of the adaptability of microorganisms to a range of environments. An overview of the distribution and diversity of RNR classes -- particularly among microbes -- is therefore of interest in delimiting environmental range. To facilitate progress in these areas, we have established the Ribonucleotide Reductase database (RNRdb), a manually annotated and curated data source for annotation and comparative investigations centred on RNR biology.
Subsidiarity, understood in the positive sense as economic, institutional or juridical assistance offered to lesser social entities, entails a corresponding series of negative implications that require the State to refrain from anything that would de facto restrict the existential space of the smaller essential cells of society. Their initiative, freedom and responsibility must not be supplanted. 350c69d7ab
