Provides an extensive overview on how lipids are formed, assembled, and engaged to generate biological membranes
Chapters are written in an informative style, are well illustrated and interesting to read for the newcomer as well as the senior scientist in the field
Functional aspects of lipids, lipid residues and membranes in microbes are elaborated in detail
Biosynthesis pathways for the different microbial lipid classes provide a unique compendium of lipid biology in the living world
Readers obtain a profound understanding of lipid and membrane formation, function and remodeling
