These bacteria have thick cell walls that give them Gram-positive stains, but they also include a second membrane and are therefore closer in structure to Gram-negative bacteria. ''Deinococcus'' survive when their DNA is exposed to high doses of gamma and UV radiation. Whereas other bacteria change their structure in the presence of radiation, such as by forming endospores, ''Deinococcus'' tolerate it without changing their cellular form and do not retreat into a hardened structure. They are also characterized by the presence of the carotenoid pigment deinoxanthin that gives them their pink color. They are usually isolated according to these two criteria. In August 2020, scientists reported that bacteria from Earth, particularly ''Deinococcus'' bacteria, were found to survive for three years in outer space, based on studies conducted on the International Space Station. These findings support the notion of panspermia, the hypothesis that life exists throughout the Universe, distributed in various ways, including space dust, meteoroids, asteroids, comets, planetoids or contaminated spacecraft.<ref name="CNN-20200826">{{cite news |last=Strickland |first=Ashley |title=Bacteria from Earth can survive in space and could endure the trip to Mars, according to new study |url=https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/26/world/earth-mars-bacteria-space-scn/index.html |date=26 August 2020 |work=CNN News |access-date=26 August 2020 }}</ref><ref name="FM-20200826">{{cite journal |author=Kawaguchi, Yuko |display-authors=et al. |title=DNA Damage and Survival Time Course of Deinococcal Cell Pellets During 3 Years of Exposure to Outer Space |date=26 August 2020 |journal=Frontiers in Microbiology |volume=11 |page=2050 |doi=10.3389/fmicb.2020.02050 |pmid=32983036 |pmc=7479814 |doi-access=free }}</ref>
== Molecular signatures == Members of ''Deinococcus'' can be distinguished from all other bacteria through molecular signatures known as conserved signature indels (CSIs) and proteins (CSPs). An earlier study on ''Deinococcus'' identified nine CSIs and 58 CSPs which were exclusively shared by members of this genus.<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|last1=Ho|first1=Jonathan|last2=Adeolu|first2=Mobolaji|last3=Khadka|first3=Bijendra|last4=Gupta|first4=Radhey S.|date=October 2016|title=Identification of distinctive molecular traits that are characteristic of the phylum "''Deinococcus–Thermus''" and distinguish its main constituent groups|journal=Systematic and Applied Microbiology|volume=39|issue=7|pages=453–463|doi=10.1016/j.syapm.2016.07.003|pmid=27506333 |issn=0723-2020}}</ref> Some of the identified CSPs such as the DNA damage repair protein PprA and the single-stranded DNA-binding protein DdrB are thought to have functional roles in the DNA repair mechanism and radioresistance phenotype of ''Deinococcus''.<ref name=":0"/>
In a more recent work focused on DNA repair proteins an additional 22 CSIs were identified as specific to this genus, including a 30 amino acid insert in the UvrA1 protein that is suggested to play in a role in the resistance ability of ''Deinococcus'' species against radiation and oxidation damage.<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last1=Hassan|first1=F.

The ''uvrA1'' gene in ''Deinococcus'' was found to form a novel genetic linkage with the genes of the proteins dCSP-1 (a transmembrane protein found only in ''Deinococcus'' species), DsbA and DsbB. The latter two proteins play a central role in the formation of disulfide bonds in proteins via oxidation-reduction of cysteine rich motifs (CXXC).<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Inaba|first1=Kenji|last2=Ito|first2=Koreaki|date=April 2008|title=Structure and mechanisms of the DsbB–DsbA disulfide bond generation machine|journal=Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research|volume=1783|issue=4|pages=520–529|doi=10.1016/j.bbamcr.2007.11.006|pmid=18082634 |issn=0167-4889|doi-access=free}}</ref> The above cluster of genes forms a novel operon unique to ''Deinococcus'' species and the encoded proteins are predicted to function together to combat against DNA damage caused by reactive oxidative species from radiation.<ref name=":1"/>
The 30 aa CSI present in UvrA1 and another 5-7 aa CSI present in DsbA are located on surface loops of the proteins. The surface exposed loops/patches formed by these CSIs are thought to mediate protein-protein interactions with the transmembrane protein dCSP-1, thus facilitating a sequence of electron transfers that ultimately ameliorates oxidative damage.<ref name=":1"/>

Most species appear to have about 3,000 genes, but only a fraction of them are shared in other species. For example, a 3-species comparison among ''D. radiodurans'', ''D. deserti'', and ''D. geothermalis'' shows that about two thirds of each genome is shared by all three species, but close to a third is specific and only found in one of the species (see figure). Once more genomes are included in such comparisons, the core genome will almost certainly be much smaller.<ref name=":2" />
