Methane (CH4) has attracted attention as not only one of the hydrogen carriers in terms of energy density, but also synthetic natural gas. In nature, the decomposition of organic compounds is performed with bacterial ecosystems that can produce CH4 ...

A mesophilic methanogenic culture, designated JL01, was isolated from Holocene permafrost in the Russian Arctic. After long-term extensive cultivation at 15 °C, it turned out to be a tied binary culture of archaeal (JL01) and bacterial (Sphaerochaeta ...

Topoisomerase VI is a chirally-selective, preferential DNA decatenase
DNA topoisomerase VI (topo VI) is a type IIB DNA topoisomerase found predominantly in archaea and some bacteria, but also in plants and algae. Since its discovery, topo VI has been proposed to be a DNA decatenase; however, robust evidence and a mechanism

Glutamine synthetases (GS) play central roles in cellular nitrogen assimilation. Although GS active-site formation requires the oligomerization of just two GS subunits, all GS form large, multi-oligomeric machines.

Characterization of a feedback-resistant mevalonate kinase from the archaeon Methanosarcina mazei. [PDF]
The mevalonate pathway is utilized for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids in many bacterial, eukaryotic, and archaeal organisms. Based on previous reports of its feedback inhibition, mevalonate kinase (MVK) may play an important regulatory role in the ...

Differential regulation of Ota and Otb, two primary glycine betaine transporters in the methanogenic archaeon Methanosarcina mazei go1 [PDF]
Methanogenic archaea accumulate glycine betaine in response to hypersalinity, but the regulation of proteins involved, their mechanism of activation and regulation of the corresponding genes are largely unknown.

Resonance Raman analysis of intracellular vitamin B12 analogs in methanogenic archaea
Methanogenic archaea (methanogens) are microorganisms that can synthesize methane. They are found in diverse environments ranging from paddy fields to animal digestive tracts to deep‐sea hydrothermal vents.

Rational design of the genetic code expansion toolkit for in vivo encoding of D-amino acids
Once thought to be non-naturally occurring, D-amino acids (DAAs) have in recent years been revealed to play a wide range of physiological roles across the tree of life, including in human systems.
