The Lrs14 family of DNA‐binding proteins as nucleoid‐associated proteins in the Crenarchaeal order Sulfolobales

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 2, Page 132-142, February 2025.
Crenarchaeal Sulfolobales organize their genome with small, abundant nucleoid‐associated proteins. Here, we shed light on the distinct function of the Lrs14 family of aspecific DNA‐binding proteins, position these members toward the “chromatin organizing” side of the spectrum of DNA binders and propose a regulatory role for Lrs14s in global gene ...

Isolation and characterization of a novel methanogen Methanosarcina hadiensis sp. nov. from subsurface Boom Clay pore water

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2024.
We isolated a novel methanogenic archaeon, Methanosarcina hadiensis sp. nov. (TD41E1‐1), from Boom Clay pore water at a depth of 225 m. It exhibits unique characteristics compared to previously characterized Methanosarcina species, such as the inability to perform acetoclastic methanogenesis and the presence of extensive surface appendages.

Transcriptomic evidence for an energetically advantageous relationship between Syntrophomonas wolfei and Methanothrix soehngenii

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2024.
We studied predefined co‐cultures to investigate the influence of acetate scavenger Methanothrix soehngenii on butyrate oxidation by a co‐culture of Syntrophomonas wolfei and Methanospirillum hungatei. RNAseq was used to compare the gene expression profiles of syntroph S. wolfei with and without the presence of the acetate scavenger M.

Proposed Role for KaiC-Like ATPases as Major Signal Transduction Hubs in Archaea

open access: yesmBio, 2017
All organisms must adapt to ever-changing environmental conditions and accordingly have evolved diverse signal transduction systems. In bacteria, the most abundant networks are built around the two-component signal transduction systems that include ...

Archaeal membrane-associated proteases: insights on Haloferax volcanii and other haloarchaea

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The function of membrane proteases range from general house-keeping to regulation of cellular processes. Although the biological role of these enzymes in archaea is poorly understood, some of them are implicated in the biogenesis of the archaeal cell ...

DIVERSITY AND EVOLUTION OF TYPE IV PILI SYSTEMS IN ARCHAEA

open access: yesFrontiers 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).

Effects of N-glycosylation site removal in archaellins on the assembly and function of archaella in Methanococcus maripaludis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In Methanococcus maripaludis S2, the swimming organelle, the archaellum, is composed of three archaellins, FlaB1S2, FlaB2S2 and FlaB3S2. All three are modified with an N-linked tetrasaccharide at multiple sites.
