Interplay of intracellular and trans‐cellular DNA methylation in natural archaeal consortia
This study examined genome methylation in Haloferax lucertense and its DPANN symbiont, Candidatus Nanohalococcus occultus, within an archaeal halophilic xylan‐degrading community. It revealed a complex methylation pattern in the genome of H. lucertense and presented the first evidence of cross‐methylation by the symbiont's methyltransferases ...

Horizontal gene transfer is a means by which bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes are able to trade DNA within and between species. While there are a variety of mechanisms through which this genetic exchange can take place, one means prevalent in the ...

Haloferax volcanii UbaA, catalytic engine for sampylation and sulfur transfer [PDF]
The Small Archaeal Modifier Proteins (SAMPs) from Haloferax volcanii belong to the group of ubiquitin like proteins (Ubls) that act both as protein modifiers and sulfur carriers.

Polyploidy in haloarchaea: advantages for growth and survival
The investigated haloarchaeal species, Halobacterium salinarum, Haloferax mediterranii, and H. volcanii, have all been shown to be polyploid. They contain several replicons that have independent copy number regulation, and most have a higher copy number ...

Biochemical evidence for an alternate pathway in N-linked glycoprotein biosynthesis [PDF]
Asparagine-linked glycosylation is a complex protein modification conserved among all three domains of life. Herein we report the in vitro analysis of N-linked glycosylation from the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus voltae.

Evidence from phylogenetic and genome fingerprinting analyses suggests rapidly changing variation in Halorubrum and Haloarcula populations [PDF]
Halobacteria require high NaCl concentrations for growth and are the dominant inhabitants of hypersaline environments above 15% NaCl. They are well documented to be highly recombinogenic, both in frequency and in the range of exchange partners.

Presence of structural homologs of ubiquitin in haloalkaliphilic Archaea [PDF]
Ubiquitin, a protein widely conserved in eukaryotes, is involved in many cellular processes, including proteolysis. While sequences encoding ubiquitin-like proteins have not been identified in prokaryotic genomes sequenced so far, they have revealed the ...

Comparative functional genomics approach for the annotation of proteins in Unclassified Halophilic archaeon DL31 [PDF]
The structure, function and sub-cellular location prediction for the unknown proteins from Unclassified Halophilic archaeon DL31 were carried out for characterization of the proteins in their respective families.

Origin and Functional Evolution of the Cdc48/p97/VCP AAA+ Protein Unfolding and Remodeling Machine [PDF]
The AAA + Cdc48 ATPase (alias p97 or VCP) is a key player in multiple ubiquitin-dependent cell signaling, degradation, and quality control pathways. Central to these broad biological functions is the ability of Cdc48 to interact with a large number of ...
