This review compares exemplary molecular and metabolic features of Archaea and Bacteria in terms of phylogenetic aspects. The results of the comparison confirm the coherence of the Archaea as postulated by Woese. Archaea and Bacteria share many basic features of their genetic machinery and their central metabolism. Similarities and distinctions allow projections regarding the nature of the common ancestor and the process of lineage diversification.
本综述从系统发育角度比较了古菌和细菌典型的分子与代谢特征。比较结果证实了沃斯所假设的古菌的连贯性。古菌和细菌在其遗传机制和中心代谢方面有许多基本特征。相似性和差异有助于推测共同祖先的性质以及谱系多样化的过程。
