The aim of the lecture is to give the student a comprehensive idea of the structure and function of bacterial and archaea cells, which are the implementation of their genetic program depending on the changing environmental conditions.
Prerequisite of the course is Microbiology MB140P33I. Last update: Konopásek Ivo, doc. RNDr., CSc. (22.04.2022)
