Lipopolysaccharide Detection across the Kingdoms of Life [PDF]

Trends in Immunology, 2017
Studies in recent years have uncovered a diverse set of eukaryotic receptors that recognize lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the major outer-membrane component of Gram-negative bacteria. Indeed, Toll-like receptors, G-protein-coupled receptors, integrins, receptor-like kinases, and caspases have emerged as important LPS-interacting proteins.

Determination of Geochemical Bio-Signatures in Mars-Like Basaltic Environments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Bio-signatures play a central role in determining whether life existed on early Mars. Using a terrestrial basalt as a compositional analog for the martian surface, we applied a combination of experimental microbiology and thermochemical modeling ...

UV Irradiation and Near Infrared Characterization of Laboratory Mars Soil Analog Samples

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020
The search for molecular biosignatures at the surface of Mars is complicated by an intense irradiation in the mid- and near-ultraviolet (UV) spectral range for several reasons: (i) many astrobiologically relevant molecules are electronically excited by ...

The HOMO-LUMO Gap as Discriminator of Biotic from Abiotic Chemistries

Life
Low-molecular-mass organic chemicals are widely discussed as potential indicators of life in extraterrestrial habitats. However, demarcation lines between biotic chemicals and abiotic chemicals have been difficult to define.
