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.

Peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase from Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
An enzyme capable of liberating functional tRNA(Lys) from Escherichia coli diacetyl-lysyl-tRNA(Lys) was purified from the archae Sulfolobus solfataricus. Contrasting with the specificity of peptidyl- tRNA hydrolase (PTH) from E.coli, the S.solfataricus enzyme readily accepts E.coli formyl-methionyl-tRNA(fMet) as a substrate.

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.

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.

Appendage-Mediated Surface Adherence of Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
ABSTRACT Attachment of microorganisms to surfaces is a prerequisite for colonization and biofilm formation. The hyperthermophilic crenarchaeote Sulfolobus solfataricus was able to attach to a variety of surfaces, such as glass, mica, pyrite, and carbon-coated gold grids.

Hydroxyurea-Mediated Cytotoxicity Without Inhibition of Ribonucleotide Reductase
In many organisms, hydroxyurea (HU) inhibits class I ribonucleotide reductase, leading to lowered cellular pools of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates. The reduced levels for DNA precursors is believed to cause replication fork stalling. Upon treatment of

Structural basis of RNA polymerase inhibition by viral and host factors
Understanding the structural basis for the inhibition of archaeal eukaryotic-like RNA polymerases (RNAPs) during virus infection is of interest for drug design.
