The aim of this work is to study alterations in peroxiredoxin (Prx) expression induced by NNK during carcinogenesis. Characterization of Prx genes from hamster was performed using bioinformatics.展开更多

An intensive study of stationary phase could promote a comprehensive understanding of the complete life cycle of microorganisms, and may provide important insights into their adaptation to harsh and nutrient-depleted conditions. Although the underlying mechanisms have been weU-studied in bacteria and yeasts (Herman, 2002; Navarro Llorens et al., 2010), less is known about this growth phase in archaea yet. The haloarchaeon Haloferax mediterranei has served as a good model for studying haloarchaeal physiology and metabolism for several decades because of its accelerated growth, remarkable metabolic ability and genomic stability (Han et al., 2012). During stationary phase, H. mediterranei can produce halocin H4 (Cheung et al.,展开更多
