Carbon oxidation state in microbial polar lipids suggests adaptation to hot spring temperature and redox gradients

The influence of oxidation-reduction (redox) potential on the expression of biomolecules is a topic of ongoing exploration in geobiology. In this study, we investigate the novel possibility that structures and compositions of lipids produced by microbial communities are sensitive to environmental re...
