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).

Pili: the microbes' Swiss army knifes [PDF]

, 2018
Surface attachment is the crucial first step for a single cell transitions from a planktonic to a surface associated state, which can lead to the development of multicellular communities called biofilms.

Expanding the archaellum regulatory network - the eukaryotic protein kinases ArnC and ArnD influence motility ofSulfolobus acidocaldarius

MicrobiologyOpen, 2016
Expression of the archaellum, the archaeal-type IV pilus-like rotating motility structure is upregulated under nutrient limitation. This is controlled by a network of regulators, called the archaellum regulatory network (arn). Several of the components of this network in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius can be phosphorylated, and the deletion of the ...

Salty Genetics:a genetic toolbox for the study of haloarchaea and their viruses [PDF]

Viruses have a profound impact on members of all three domains of life, eukarya, bacteria and archaea. Archaea are single celled microorganisms which are most well known for thriving in extreme environments such as hot springs or salt lakes.

Horizontal gene transfer of the functional archaellum machinery to Bacteria

Motility in Archaea is driven by a nanomachinery called the archaellum. So far, archaella have been exclusively described for the archaeal domain; however, a recent study reported the presence of archaellum gene clusters in bacterial strains of the SAR202 clade (Chloroflexota).

4D-model of archaellum

Upon expression, purification and biochemical analysis of several wildtype and mutated archaellum subunits, the proteins will be analysed using electron cryo-microscopy. We will use the archaellum proteins from different archaea such as S. acidocaldarius, P.furiosus, M. jannaschii and Archaeoglobus fulgidus.
