A Synthetic Riboswitch to Regulate Haloarchaeal Gene Expression
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 In recent years, synthetic riboswitches have become increasingly important to construct genetic circuits in all three domains of life. In bacteria, synthetic translational riboswitches are often employed that modulate gene expression by masking the Shine-

CopR, a Global Regulator of Transcription to Maintain Copper Homeostasis in Pyrococcus furiosus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Although copper is in many cases an essential micronutrient for cellular life, higher concentrations are toxic. Therefore, all living cells have developed strategies to maintain copper homeostasis.

The archaeal protein SepF is essential for cell division in Haloferax volcanii
Nature Communications, 2021 In most bacteria, cell division depends on tubulin homolog FtsZ and other proteins, such as SepF. Cell division in many archaea also depends on FtsZ. Here, Nußbaum et al.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Microbial ammonia oxidation is the first and usually rate limiting step in nitrification and is therefore an important step in the global nitrogen cycle. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) play an important role in nitrification.

Characterization of the ATPase FlaI of the motor complex of the Pyrococcus furiosus archaellum and its interactions between the ATP-binding protein FlaH [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The archaellum, the rotating motility structure of archaea, is best studied in the crenarchaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. To better understand how assembly and rotation of this structure is driven, two ATP-binding proteins, FlaI and FlaH of the motor ...

Archaeal GPN-loop GTPases involve a lock-switch-rock mechanism for GTP hydrolysis
mBio, 2023 Three GPN-loop GTPases, GPN1–GPN3, are central to the maturation and trafficking of eukaryotic RNA polymerase II. This GTPase family is widely represented in archaea but typically occurs as single paralogs.

Grappling archaea: ultrastructural analyses of an uncultivated, cold-loving archaeon and its biofilm
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Similarly to Bacteria, Archaea are microorganisms that interact with their surrounding environment in a versatile manner. To date, interactions based on cellular structure and surface appendages have mainly been documented using model systems of ...

Positioning of the Motility Machinery in Halophilic Archaea
mBio, 2019 Bacteria and archaea exhibit tactical behavior and can move up and down chemical gradients. This tactical behavior relies on a motility structure, which is guided by a chemosensory system.
