Redox in Microorganisms, 2nd Edition
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
This is the second edition of “Redox in Microorganisms”( https://www.mdpi.com/topics/Redox_Microorganisms). The mechanisms by which microorganisms fight oxidative stress are essential for their survival in different environments. These include a large arsenal of molecular strategies to prevent or repair the oxidation of proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids, including antioxidants or enzymes that may rescue different vital components from irreversible oxidation. The molecular factors involved in these processes are relevant for pathogenesis, bioremediation, or industrial microbiology. Therefore, the study of redox biology in microorganisms is providing new insights into very diverse fields, and their translational potential is rapidly increasing. We invite you to submit your latest research findings or a review article on this special topic, which focuses on any aspect of the redox biology of microorganisms. We look forward to your contribution.
