    ..Rather, it may have been able to gain energy by means of at least four electron transport chains, and therefore it may have been prepared to face a wide range of environmental conditions...

    J Castresana
    European Molecular Biology Laboratory, Heidelberg, Germany
    J Mol Biol 250:202-10. 1995
    ..A phylogenetic analysis of the new protein sequences gives support to the view that an elaborate aerobic respiratory chain was already present in the last common ancestor of all living organisms...
