抄録

<jats:p> The complete genome sequence of the radiation-resistant bacterium <jats:italic>Deinococcus radiodurans</jats:italic> R1 is composed of two chromosomes (2,648,638 and 412,348 base pairs), a megaplasmid (177,466 base pairs), and a small plasmid (45,704 base pairs), yielding a total genome of 3,284,156 base pairs. Multiple components distributed on the chromosomes and megaplasmid that contribute to the ability of <jats:italic>D. radiodurans</jats:italic> to survive under conditions of starvation, oxidative stress, and high amounts of DNA damage were identified. <jats:italic>Deinococcus radiodurans</jats:italic> represents an organism in which all systems for DNA repair, DNA damage export, desiccation and starvation recovery, and genetic redundancy are present in one cell. </jats:p>
