Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The thermophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius has four DNA polymerases (DNAPs): PolB1, PolB2, PolB3, and Dbh (PolY). Previous in vitro studies suggested that PolB1 is the main replicative DNAP of Sulfolobales whereas PolB2 and Y-family ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.Current genome‐reduction methods work in a trial‐and‐error fashion, constituting a long‐standing bottleneck in the research. We developed CREAT (CRISPR‐based genome trimming with a multi‐homology‐arm template), a CRISPR‐based genetic approach that enables systematically classifying essential versus non‐essential genomic regions and subsequently ...

Archaeal Tetraether Lipids as Tracers for Past Marine Environmental Change
Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Archaea are single‐celled microorganisms that are abundant in marine environments and play a key role in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Archaea can biosynthesize a wide variety of isoprenoid membrane lipids, including isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (isoGDGTs).

A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 913-926, April 2026.ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

Distribution of Complex and Core Lipids within New Hyperthermophilic Members of the Archaea Domain [PDF]
, 1992 Core and complex lipids of several new hyperthermophilic archaeal isolates were analyzed. The organisms belong to the Sulfolobales,Archaeoglobus, Pyrobaculum, and Methanococcus. A detailed structural investigation of complex lipids of Pyrobaculum species

Iron Sulfides Produced by Thermococcales: An Iron Detoxification Mechanism
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.Thermococcales, archaea from hydrothermal vents, promote iron sulfide precipitation, enabling survival in iron‐rich environments. Some cells become encrusted in pyrite and do not survive mineralization, while surviving cells activate metal detoxification genes. This biomineralization process allows the population to withstand toxic iron concentrations,

Comparative genomic analysis reveals 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase complex lipoylation correlation with aerobiosis in archaea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Metagenomic analyses have advanced our understanding of ecological microbial diversity, but to what extent can metagenomic data be used to predict the metabolic capacity of difficult-to-study organisms and their abiotic environmental interactions?

Acidianus, Sulfolobus and Metallosphaera surface layers: structure, composition and gene expression
, 2009 P>The cell walls of Sulfolobales species consist of proteinaceous S-layers assembled from two polypeptides, SlaA and SlaB. We isolated the large S-layer protein of Acidianus ambivalens and both S-layer subunits of Sulfolobus solfataricus and ...

, 2020 Autotrophic Crenarchaeota use two different cycles for carbon dioxide fixation. Members of the Sulfolobales use the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate (HP/HB) cycle, whereas Desulfurococcales and Thermoproteales use the dicarboxylate/4-hydroxybutyrate
