Comparison of Lipid-Containing Bacterial and Archaeal Viruses
Advances in Virus Research, 2015Lipid-containing bacteriophages were discovered late and considered to be rare. After further phage isolations and the establishment of the domain Archaea, several new prokaryotic viruses with lipids were observed. Consequently, the presence of lipids in prokaryotic viruses is reasonably common.

Progress in lipid research, 2023
The major archaeal membrane glycerolipids are distinguished from those of bacteria and eukaryotes by the contrasting stereochemistry of their glycerol backbones, and by the use of ether-linked isoprenoid-based alkyl chains rather than ester-linked fatty acyl chains for their hydrophobic moieties.

Self-assembly and biophysical properties of archaeal lipids
Emerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2022Archaea constitute one of the three fundamental domains of life. Archaea possess unique lipids in their cell membranes which distinguish them from bacteria and eukaryotes. This difference in lipid composition is referred to as ‘Lipid Divide' and its origins remain elusive.

Archaeal Tetraether Lipids: Unique Structures and Applications
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2002The extremely stable biomolecules manufactured by organisms from extreme environments are of great scientific and engineering interest in the development of robust and stable industrial biocatalysts. Identification of molecules that impart stability under extremes will also have a profound impact on our understanding of cellular survival.

Thermal conductivity and rectification in asymmetric archaeal lipid membranes
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2018Nature employs lipids to construct nanostructured membranes that self-assemble in an aqueous environment to separate the cell interior from the exterior environment. Membrane composition changes among species and according to environmental conditions, which allows organisms to occupy a wide variety of different habitats. Lipid bilayers are phase-change

Electroporation of archaeal lipid membranes using MD simulations
Bioelectrochemistry, 2014Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to investigate the electroporation of archaeal lipid bilayers when subjected to high transmembrane voltages induced by a charge imbalance, mimicking therefore millisecond electric pulse experiments. The structural characteristics of the bilayer, a 9:91 mol% 2,3-di-O-sesterterpanyl-sn-glicerol-1-phospho-myo ...

Stable Liposomes Formed from Archaeal Ether Lipids
1993Liposomes have application in serving as a support, or matrix, to form two dimensional crystals from those proteins which normally interact with the cytoplasmic membrane (Wingfield et al., 1979). This interaction includes membrane proteins that are largely embedded within the lipid bilayer, others with relatively more surface area exposed, and surface ...

Archaeal lipid hydrogen isotopes in a marine thaumarchaeon
2022The stable hydrogen isotope composition of persistent biomolecules is used as a paleoenvironmental proxy. While much previous work has focused on plant leaf wax-derived n-alkanes, the potential of bacterial and archaeal lipid biomarkers as carriers of H isotope signatures remains underexplored.

Analysis of archaeal ether lipids in bovine faeces
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2011a b s t r a c t This study evaluated concentrations of archaeol, a lipid biomarker for Archaea and, presum- ably, methanogens in cattle faeces. Twelve continental cross-bred steers were allocated at random to receive either a concentrate based diet or a grass silage based diet.
