Anti-CRISPR-Based and CRISPR-Based Genome Editing of Sulfolobus islandicus Rod-Shaped Virus 2

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Genetic engineering of viruses has generally been challenging. This is also true for archaeal rod-shaped viruses, which carry linear double-stranded DNA genomes with hairpin ends.

Metabolism of halophilic archaea [PDF]

open access: yesExtremophiles, 2008
In spite of their common hypersaline environment, halophilic archaea are surprisingly different in their nutritional demands and metabolic pathways. The metabolic diversity of halophilic archaea was investigated at the genomic level through systematic metabolic reconstruction and comparative analysis of four completely sequenced species: Halobacterium ...

Methanogenic archaea in peatlands [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2020
ABSTRACT Methane emission feedbacks in wetlands are predicted to influence global climate under climate change and other anthropogenic stressors. Herein, we review the taxonomy and physiological ecology of the microorganisms responsible for methane production in peatlands.

Archaea in der Biotechnologie [PDF]

open access: yesBIOspektrum, 2021
AbstractArchaea are prokaryotic organisms with highly interesting physiological features. They have also shown potential for the production of biotechnological compounds. Today, the commercially available products of archaea are bacterioruberin, squalene, bacteriorhodopsin, and lipids — all of which are produced by utilizing halophilic archaea.

Putative Nucleotide-Based Second Messengers in the Archaeal Model Organisms Haloferax volcanii and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Research on nucleotide-based second messengers began in 1956 with the discovery of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (3′,5′-cAMP) by Earl Wilbur Sutherland and his co-workers.

Ancestral Reconstructions Decipher Major Adaptations of Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea upon Radiation into Moderate Terrestrial and Marine Environments

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Unlike all other archaeal lineages, ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are widespread and abundant in all moderate and oxic environments on Earth. The evolutionary adaptations that led to such unprecedented ecological success of

Enzymatic Switching Between Archaeal DNA Polymerases Facilitates Abasic Site Bypass

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Abasic sites are among the most abundant DNA lesions encountered by cells. Their replication requires actions of specialized DNA polymerases. Herein, two archaeal specialized DNA polymerases were examined for their capability to perform translesion DNA ...

A Well-Conserved Archaeal B-Family Polymerase Functions as an Extender in Translesion Synthesis

open access: yesmBio, 2022
B-family DNA polymerases (PolBs) of different groups are widespread in Archaea, and different PolBs often coexist in the same organism. Many of these PolB enzymes remain to be investigated.

Cyclic nucleotides in archaea: Cyclic di‐AMP in the archaeon Haloferax volcanii and its putative role

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
The role of cyclic nucleotides as second messengers for intracellular signal transduction has been well described in bacteria. One recently discovered bacterial second messenger is cyclic di‐adenylate monophosphate (c‐di‐AMP), which has been demonstrated

Archaea on Human Skin

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The recent era of exploring the human microbiome has provided valuable information on microbial inhabitants, beneficials and pathogens. Screening efforts based on DNA sequencing identified thousands of bacterial lineages associated with human skin but provided only incomplete and crude information on Archaea.
