Protein Oxidation Implicated as the Primary Determinant of Bacterial Radioresistance (2007)
Michael J. Daly, Elena K. Gaidamakova, Vera Y. Matrosova, Alexander Vasilenko, Min Zhai, Richard D. Leapman, ...
In the hierarchy of cellular targets damaged by ionizing radiation (IR), classical models of radiation toxicity place DNA at the top. Yet, many prokaryotes are killed by doses of IR that cause little...

Abstract Background Thermus thermophilus and Deinococcus radiodurans belong to a distinct bacterial clade but have remarkably different phenotypes. T. thermophilus is a thermophile, which is...
Site-specific strand breaks in RNA produced by 125I radiodecay
Gaidamakova, Elena K., Neumann, Ronald D., Panyutin, Igor G.
Decay of 125I produces a shower of low energy electrons (Auger electrons) that cause strand breaks in DNA in a distance-dependent manner with 90% of the breaks located within 10 bp from the decay...
Transcriptome dynamics of Deinococcus radiodurans recovering from ionizing radiation
Liu, Yongqing, Zhou, Jizhong, Omelchenko, Marina V., Beliaev, Alex S., Venkateswaran, Amudhan, Stair, Julia, ...
Deinococcus radiodurans R1 (DEIRA) is a bacterium best known for its extreme resistance to the lethal effects of ionizing radiation, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenotype remain...

The ionizing radiation (IR) dose that yields 20% survival (D20) of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is lower by factors of 20 and 200 than those for Escherichia coli and Deinococcus radiodurans,...

Deinococcus geothermalis: The Pool of Extreme Radiation Resistance Genes Shrinks
Makarova, Kira S., Omelchenko, Marina V., Gaidamakova, Elena K., Matrosova, Vera Y., Vasilenko, Alexander, Zhai, Min, ...
Bacteria of the genus Deinococcus are extremely resistant to ionizing radiation (IR), ultraviolet light (UV) and desiccation. The mesophile Deinococcus radiodurans was the first member of this group...
