Open AccessMetabolic modulations of Pseudomonas graminis in response to H2O2 in cloud water
In cloud water, microorganisms are exposed to very strong stresses especially related to the presence of reactive oxygen species including H2O2 and radicals, which are the driving force of cloud chemistry. In ord...

Clouds: A Transient and Stressing Habitat for Microorganisms
In this chapter, we synthesized the current knowledge about clouds as ecosystems which have been discovered very recently. First, we briefly described the cloud habitat. Cloud physics chemistry and microphysic...

Thiomorpholine and morpholine oxidation by a cytochrome P450 in Mycobacterium aurum MO1. Evidence of the intermediates by in situ 1H NMR
Spectrophotometric assays of Mycobacterium aurum MO1 cells extracts gave evidence of a soluble cytochrome P450, involved in the degradative pathway of morpholine, a waste product from the chemical industry. In...
