The editors and authors show how and why the relative simplicity of microbes has made them attractive targets for extensive experimental manipulation in a quest for both improved disease prevention and treatment and an improved understanding of whole organism functional biology. In particular, the text demonstrates how microbial proteomic analyses can aid in drug discovery, including identification of new targets, novel diagnostic markers, and lead optimization.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach chapter is written by one or more leading experts in the field and carefully edited to ensure a consistent and thorough approach throughout.
