TolRad: A model for predicting radiation tolerance using Pfam annotations identifies novel radiosensitive bacterial species from reference genomes and MAGs
2023-11-02
Abstract excerpt
The trait of ionizing radiation (IR) tolerance is variable between bacterial species, with radiosensitive bacteria succumbing to acute doses around 100Gy and extremophiles able to survive doses exceeding 10,000Gy. While survival screens have identified multiple highly radioresistant bacteria, such systemic searches have not been conducted for radiosensitive bacteria. The taxonomy-level diversity of IR of intoleran...
