Prediction of mutations on structure primase of the archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus
All living organisms need a DNA replication mechanism and it has been conserved in the three domains of life throughout evolutionary process. Primase is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing de novo RNA primers in DNA replication. Archaeo-Eukaryotic

Architecture and modular assembly of Sulfolobus S-layers revealed by electron cryotomography
Significance Many bacteria and most archaea are enveloped in S-layers, protective lattices of proteins that are among the most abundant on earth. S-layers define both the cell’s shape and periplasmic space, and play essential roles in cell division ...

The cell cycle of Sulfolobus [PDF]
SummaryMuch of the current information about the archaeal cell cycle has been generated through studies of the genus Sulfolobus. The overall organization of the cell cycle in these species is well understood, and information about the regulatory principles that govern cell cycle progression is rapidly accumulating.

Plasmids occur frequently in Archaea. A novel plasmid (denoted pTC1) containing typical conjugation functions has been isolated from Sulfolobus tengchongensis RT8-4, a strain obtained from a hot spring in Tengchong, China, and characterized.

Biological Membranes in Extreme Conditions: Simulations of Anionic Archaeal Tetraether Lipid Membranes. [PDF]
In contrast to the majority of organisms that have cells bound by di-ester phospholipids, archaeal membranes consist of di- and tetraether phospholipids.

The Sulfolobus database (http://www.sulfolobus.org) integrates, for the first time, all currently available Sulfolobus chromosome sequences with annotations. It also includes all the sequence data for the extrachromosomal elements which can propagate in Sulfolobus organisms.

Bioenergetics of the archaebacterium Sulfolobus
Archaea are forming one of the three kingdoms defining the universal phylogenetic tree of living organisms. Within itself this kingdom is heterogenous regarding the mechanisms for deriving energy from the environment for support of cellular functions.

Calditol-linked membrane lipids are required for acid tolerance in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
Significance It is thought that the distinct ether lipid membranes of archaea allow them to thrive in environmental extremes. However, it has been difficult to demonstrate this physiological role directly.

Endogenous Mutagenesis in Recombinant Sulfolobus Plasmids [PDF]
ABSTRACT Low rates of replication errors in chromosomal genes of Sulfolobus spp. demonstrate that these extreme thermoacidophiles can maintain genome integrity in environments with high temperature and low pH. In contrast to this genetic stability, we observed unusually frequent mutation of the β-
