A broad repertoire of mechanisms and macromolecular machines are required to deliver protein substrates across bacterial cell membranes for intended effects. Some machines are common to most, if not all bacteria, whereas others are specific to Gram-negative or Gram-positive species or species with unique cell envelope properties such as members of Actinobacteria and Spirochetes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eProtein Secretion in Bacteria\u003c\/i\u003e, authored and edited by an international team of experts, draws together the many distinct functions and mechanisms involved in protein translocation in one concise tome.

This volume synthesizes the diversity of mechanisms of bacterial secretion across the microbial world into a digestible resource to stimulate new research, inspire continued identification and characterization of novel systems, and bring about new ways to manipulate these systems for biotechnological, preventative, and therapeutic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaria Sandkvist\u003c\/b\u003e, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEric Cascales\u003c\/b\u003e, CNRS Aix-Marseille Université, Mediterranean Institute of Microbiology, Marseille, France.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter J.
