Regulation of DNA Topology in Archaea: State of the Art and Perspectives. [PDF]
Mol MicrobiolDNA topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that play a crucial role in regulating DNA supercoiling which affects fundamental biological processes involving DNA. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of regulation of supercoiling by DNA topoisomerases in the third domain of life, the Archaea, with a particular focus on three key model ...

Capturing chromosome conformation in Crenarchaea. [PDF]
Mol MicrobiolTo fit into cells, chromosomes must be folded. Here we describe how members of the Archaea effect this folding process and how chromosome architecture both influences and is influenced by gene expression. Abstract While there is a considerable body of knowledge regarding the molecular and structural biology and biochemistry of archaeal information ...

Sessile Lifestyle Offers Protection against Copper Stress in Saccharolobus solfataricus
Microorganisms, 2023 Some archaea from the genus Sulfolobus are important for bioleaching of copper, where metal resistant microorganisms are required. Biofilm generation is one of the ways microorganisms cope with some stimuli in nature, including heavy metals. The response

Energy use efficiency of soil microorganisms: Driven by carbon recycling and reduction
Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 22, Page 6170-6187, November 2023., 2023 We linked carbon use efficiency (CUE) and energy use efficiency (EUE) considering the nominal oxidation state of carbon (NOSC) of microbial biomass and element compositions of substrates utilized by microorganisms. The mean microbial EUE (0.32–0.35) is 18% lower than CUE (0.41) using glucose as a substrate, indicating that microbial growth is limited ...

Isolation of archaeal viruses with lipid membrane from Tengchong acidic hot springs
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Archaeal viruses are one of the most mysterious parts of the virosphere because of their diverse morphologies and unique genome contents. The crenarchaeal viruses are commonly found in high temperature and acidic hot springs, and the number of identified
