Computational Identification of Operons in Microbial Genomes [PDF]
By applying graph representations to biochemical pathways, a new computational pipeline is proposed to find potential operons in microbial genomes. The algorithm relies on the fact that enzyme genes in operons tend to catalyze successive reactions in metabolic pathways.

Microbial Assimilation of Hydrocarbons: Identification of Phospholipids [PDF]
The distribution of phospholipids derived from Micrococcus cerificans was determined under a variety of nutritive conditions. Cells were grown with hexadecane, heptadecane, or acetate serving as the sole carbon source.
