Chromosome conformation capture assay combined with biotin enrichment for hyperthermophilic archaea
Summary: Chromosome organization in archaea has long been enigmatic due, in part, to the typically small cell size of archaea and the extremophilic nature of many of the model archaeal species studies, rendering live-cell imaging technically challenging.

Summary: Type III CRISPR-cas systems initiate cyclic oligo-adenylate (cOA) signaling to initiate immune response. Previously, we identified that a membrane-associated DHH-DHHA1 family protein from Sulfolobus islandicus efficiently degrades cOA.

High-resolution analysis of chromosome conformation in hyperthermophilic archaea
Summary: Chromosome conformation capture (3C) techniques are emerging as promising approaches to study genome organization in Archaea, the least understood domain of life in terms of chromosome biology. Here, we describe a 3C technique combined with deep

The Cell Membrane of Sulfolobus spp.—Homeoviscous Adaption and Biotechnological Applications
The microbial cell membrane is affected by physicochemical parameters, such as temperature and pH, but also by the specific growth rate of the host organism.

Distinct Patterns of Antibiotic Sensitivities in Ammonia-Oxidising Archaea. [PDF]
Antibiotic sensitivity varies between different strains of ammonia‐oxidising archaea. The results of this study will be useful for selective enrichment and development of a genetic system for ammonia‐oxidising archaea. ABSTRACT Ammonia‐oxidising archaea (AOA) are important microorganisms contributing towards the nitrogen flux in the environment. Unlike

A Spotlight on Archaea in Humans, Livestock and Poultry: A Review. [PDF]
The microbiota includes prokaryotes (archaea and bacteria) and eukaryotes. Archaea are single‐celled prokaryotes and essential part of gut microbiome. Researches on archaea in ruminants and humans are more than mono‐gastric. The low abundance of archaea in the gut depends on the method used (metagenomics or meta‐transcriptomic) and age of people or ...

Two novel, strictly aerobic, sulfur-dependent, thermoacidophilic strains, IC-006T and IC-007, were isolated from a solfataric field at Hakone Ohwaku-dani, Kanagawa, Japan. Cells of the two strains were irregular cocci with a diameter of 1.0-1.8 µm.

The UV-inducible pili system of Sulfolobales (Ups) mediates the formation of species-specific cellular aggregates. Within these aggregates, cells exchange DNA to repair DNA double-strand breaks via homologous recombination. Substitution of the Sulfolobus

Biochemical characterization of a structure-specific resolving enzyme from Sulfolobus islandicus rod-shaped virus 2. [PDF]
Sulfolobus islandicus rod shaped virus 2 (SIRV2) infects the archaeon Sulfolobus islandicus at extreme temperature (70°C-80°C) and acidity (pH 3). SIRV2 encodes a Holliday junction resolving enzyme (SIRV2 Hjr) that has been proposed as a key enzyme in ...
