They are present in terrestrial and marine environments as well as the human body. The diversity, adaptation, and functions of these microorganisms can contribute to the development and application of new biotechnologies for resolving problems of resource exploitation, pollution, and human disease. This book presents breakthroughs and insights into the research on acidophiles. Chapters cover such topics as the two-component system (TCS) in the regulation of the sulfur metabolic process, adaptation mechanisms of acidophiles to low pH, regulation mechanisms and application strategy of quorum sensing in bioleaching bacteria, and Lactobacillus acidophilus and its potential role as a therapeutic for human bone disorders. 517 $aAcidophiles 606 $aMicroorganisms 606 $aGeomicrobiology 615 0$aMicroorganisms. 615 0$aGeomicrobiology. 676 $a576 702 $aChen$b Lin-Xu 702 $aLin$b Jianqun 702 $aLin$b Jianqiang 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688398203321 996 $aAcidophiles$92952324 997 $aUNINA
