Abstract
According to the information available today, all types of microorganisms have common mechanisms for regulating the activity of virulence factors by the secondary messenger cAMP. They have been studied best in human and animal pathogens. At the same time, microorganisms that differ in specialization and habitat conditions, such as phytopathogens and mutualists, have mechanisms controlled by cAMP and adenylate cyclases that are fundamentally different from those in animal pathogens. The level of study of these processes in microorganisms of different specializations is uneven. This review attempts to systematize the available literature data and conduct a comparative analysis.
期刊介绍:
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original articles on biochemistry and microbiology that have or may have practical applications. The studies include: enzymes and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions, biosynthesis of low and high molecular physiologically active compounds; the studies of their structure and properties; biogenesis and pathways of their regulation; metabolism of producers of biologically active compounds, biocatalysis in organic synthesis, applied genetics of microorganisms, applied enzymology; protein and metabolic engineering, biochemical bases of phytoimmunity, applied aspects of biochemical and immunochemical analysis; biodegradation of xenobiotics; biosensors; biomedical research (without clinical studies). Along with experimental works, the journal publishes descriptions of novel research techniques and reviews on selected topics.
