QueF-Like, a Non-Homologous Archaeosine Synthase from the Crenarchaeota [PDF]
Archaeosine (G+) is a structurally complex modified nucleoside ubiquitous to the Archaea, where it is found in the D-loop of virtually all archaeal transfer RNA (tRNA).

New insights on the mechanism of the K(+-) independent activity of crenarchaeota pyruvate kinases.
Eukarya pyruvate kinases have glutamate at position 117 (numbered according to the rabbit muscle enzyme), whereas in Bacteria have either glutamate or lysine and in Archaea have other residues.

Differences in Prokaryotic Community Composition Between Two Climatically Contrasting Years in an Arctic Fjord Ecosystem. [PDF]
Seasonal dynamics of prokaryotic communities in Kongsfjorden were driven by contrasting hydrographic conditions in 2019 and 2020. Atlantification enhanced prokaryotic diversity and interactions in 2019, while sea ice and glacial runoff in 2020 reduced surface diversity and network complexity, underscoring Arctic prokaryotic sensitivity to environmental

Soil Microbiome of Tropical Seasonal and Permanent Small Wetlands. [PDF]
Distinct hydrological regimes shape microbial communities and metabolic pathways in tropical wetlands. Redox‐driven shifts highlight enhanced methanogenesis under anoxia, and dominant archaeal and bacterial groups reflect specific redox conditions and adaptations, with important implications for biogeochemical cycling and climate‐relevant processes ...

Diversity of Archaeosine Synthesis in Crenarchaeota [PDF]
Archaeosine (G(+)) is found at position 15 of many archaeal tRNAs. In Euryarchaeota, the G(+) precursor, 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ(0)), is inserted into tRNA by tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (arcTGT) before conversion into G(+) by ARChaeosine Synthase (ArcS). However, many Crenarchaeota known to harbor G(+) lack ArcS homologues.

Detection of Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota in an oxic basalt aquifer [PDF]
Groundwater from an oxic, fractured basalt aquifer was examined for the presence of Archaea. DNA was extracted from cells concentrated from groundwater collected from five wells penetrating the eastern Snake River Plain Aquifer (Idaho, USA). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of 16S rDNA was performed with Archaea-specific primers using both

Hot and sweet: protein glycosylation in Crenarchaeota [PDF]
Every living cell is covered with a dense and complex array of covalently attached sugars or sugar chains. The majority of these glycans are linked to proteins via the so-called glycosylation process. Protein glycosylation is found in all three domains of life: Eukarya, Bacteria and Archaea.

Crenarchaeota and Euryarchaeota in temperate estuarine sediments [PDF]
Application of molecular techniques to ecological studies has unveiled a wide diversity of micro-organisms in natural communities, previously unknown to microbial ecologists. New lineages of Archaea were retrieved from several non-extreme environments, showing that these micro-organisms are present in a large variety of ecosystems.

An uncultivated crenarchaeota contains functional bacteriochlorophyll a synthase [PDF]
Abstract A fosmid clone 37F10 containing an archaeal 16S rRNA gene was screened out from a metagenomic library of Pearl River sediment, southern China. Sequence analysis of the 35 kb inserted fragment of 37F10 found that it contains a single 16S rRNA gene belonging to Miscellaneous Crenarchaeotal Group (MCG) and 36 open reading frames ...

Structure and Spatial Heterogeneity of Chemosynthesis-Based Deep-Sea Archaeal and Bacterial Communities in Western South Atlantic. [PDF]
We report an extensive investigation of prokaryotic communities from a methane cold‐seep area in the Western South Atlantic Ocean (Southern Brazil) employing a broad sample set, including three distinct geographic areas (A, C and E) across a depth gradient (up to 18 m below the seafloor) related to the sulfate–methane transition zone (SMTZ).
