Aerobiosis is not associated with GC content and G to T mutations are not the signature of oxidative stress in prokaryotic evolution [PDF]
AbstractBackground:Among the four bases, guanine is the most susceptible to damage from oxidative stress. Replication of DNA containing damaged guanines result in G to T mutations. Therefore, the mutations resulting from oxidative DNA damage are generally expected to predominantly consist of G to T (and C to A when the damaged guanine is not in the ...

Comparative Genomic Analysis Reveals 2-Oxoacid Dehydrogenase Complex Lipoylation Correlation with Aerobiosis in Archaea [PDF]
Metagenomic analyses have advanced our understanding of ecological microbial diversity, but to what extent can metagenomic data be used to predict the metabolic capacity of difficult-to-study organisms and their abiotic environmental interactions? We tackle this question, using a comparative genomic approach, by considering the molecular basis of ...

Further studies on the stimulation of glycolysis by previous aerobiosis [PDF]
1. A short period of incubation in oxygen increases the rate of anaerobic glycolysis in all the normal adult tissues that have been tested, with the exception of erythrocytes. 2. This stimulation does not occur in the six different tumours and in the two embryonic tissues that have been studied. 3.

Loss of a Functional Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in Komagataella phaffii Does Not Improve Lactic Acid Production from Glycerol in Aerobic Cultivation. [PDF]
Cytosolic pyruvate is an essential metabolite in lactic acid production during microbial fermentation. However, under aerobiosis, pyruvate is transported to the mitochondrial matrix by the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) and oxidized in cell ...
