Resumo(s)
"The Deinococcaceae family includes some of the most extensively studied
radiaƟon-resistant bacteria, parƟcularly those of the genus Deinococcus. This
thesis focuses on the stress-resistance mechanisms of Deinococcus radiodurans
and Deinococcus indicus, with a parƟcular focus on their potenƟal applicaƟons in
arsenic bioremediaƟon. While D. radiodurans is renowned for its resistance to
radiaƟon, oxidaƟve damage, and desiccaƟon, its arsenic detoxiĮcaƟon capacity
remains unexplored. In contrast, D. indicus is naturally resistant to arsenic but
remains poorly studied. By integraƟng structural, molecular, and physiological
analyses, this thesis provides novel insights into the adapƟve strategies and
resistance mechanisms of these species.(...)"
