Crystallographic analysis of archaeal ribosomal protein L11 [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology Communications, 2015 Ribosomal protein L11 is an important part of the GTPase-associated centre in ribosomes of all organisms. L11 is a highly conserved two-domain ribosomal protein. The C-terminal domain of L11 is an RNA-binding domain that binds to a fragment of 23S rRNA and stabilizes its structure. The complex between L11 and 23S rRNA is involved in the GTPase activity

Translocation of proteins across archaeal cytoplasmic membranes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2004 All cells need to transport proteins across hydrophobic membranes. Several mechanisms have evolved to facilitate this transport, including: (i) the universally-conserved Sec system, which transports proteins in an unfolded conformation and is thought to be the major translocation pathway in most organisms and (ii) the Tat system, which transports ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Archaeal species encode a variety of distinct lineage-specific chromosomal proteins. We have previously shown that in Thermococcus kodakarensis, histone, Alba, and TrmBL2 play distinct roles in chromosome organization.

Science China Life Sciences, 2012 Archaea, along with Bacteria and Eukarya, are the three domains of life. In all living cells, chromatin proteins serve a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the structure and function of the genome. An array of small, abundant and basic DNA-binding proteins, considered candidates for chromatin proteins, has been isolated from the Euryarchaeota

Evidence for binary Smc complexes lacking kite subunits in archaea
IUCrJ, 2020 SMC complexes play a central role in chromosome organization in all domains of life. The bacterial Smc–ScpAB complex is a three-subunit complex composed of Smc, ScpA and ScpB.

Phylogenomics of prokaryotic ribosomal proteins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Archaeal and bacterial ribosomes contain more than 50 proteins, including 34 that are universally conserved in the three domains of cellular life (bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes).

Archaeal S-Layers: Overview and Current State of the Art
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 In contrast to bacteria, all archaea possess cell walls lacking peptidoglycan and a number of different cell envelope components have also been described.

Crystal structure of an archaeal CorB magnesium transporter
Nature Communications, 2021 CNNM/CorB proteins are a conserved family of membrane proteins associated with Mg2+ transport. Here, structures of an archaeal CorB protein in apo state and with Mg2+-ATP bound and accompanying biophysical experiments suggest direct Mg2+ transport by ...

DIVERSITY AND EVOLUTION OF TYPE IV PILI SYSTEMS IN ARCHAEA
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Many surface structures in archaea including various types of pili and the archaellum (archaeal flagellum) are homologous to bacterial type IV pili systems (T4P).
