The FEBS Journal, Volume 288, Issue 18, Page 5350-5373, September 2021., 2021 Several small proteins have been recently identified in Methanosarcina mazei. By functional and biochemical characterizations, we demonstrated that the small protein sP26 interacts with the glutamine synthetase under nitrogen starvation and enhances its activity by stabilizing the dodecameric structure independently and in addition to the known ...

Thermal adaptation of the archaeal and bacterial lipid membranes. [PDF]
Archaea, 2012 The physiological characteristics that distinguish archaeal and bacterial lipids, as well as those that define thermophilic lipids, are discussed from three points of view that (1) the role of the chemical stability of lipids in the heat tolerance of thermophilic organisms: (2) the relevance of the increase in the proportion of certain lipids as the ...

Diversity of the DNA Replication System in the Archaea Domain
Archaea, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 The precise and timely duplication of the genome is essential for cellular life. It is achieved by DNA replication, a complex process that is conserved among the three domains of life. Even though the cellular structure of archaea closely resembles that of bacteria, the information processing machinery of archaea is evolutionarily more closely related ...

Archaea, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 The use of reporter gene fusions to assess cellular processes such as protein targeting and regulation of transcription or translation is established technology in archaeal, bacterial, and eukaryal genetics. Fluorescent proteins or enzymes resulting in chromogenic substrate turnover, like β‐galactosidase, have been particularly useful for microscopic ...

Archaea, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Coenzyme M is an essential coenzyme for methanogenesis. The proposed biosynthetic pathway consists of five steps, of which the fourth step is catalyzed by sulfopyruvate decarboxylase (ComDE). Disruption of the gene comE by transposon mutagenesis resulted in a partial coenzyme M auxotroph, which grew poorly in the absence of coenzyme M and retained less

Laboratory tools for detection of archaea in humans [PDF]
, 2012 This work represents an update of knowledge regarding the detection methods for human microbiome-associated archaea. Despite the fact that, during the last three decades, only four methanoarchaeal species have been isolated from the human mucosa ...

Archaea, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 A markerless genetic exchange system was successfully established in Methanosarcina mazei strain Gö1 using the hpt gene coding for hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase. First, a chromosomal deletion mutant of the hpt gene was generated conferring resistance to the purine analog 8‐aza‐2,6‐diaminopurine (8‐ADP).
