Discovering Hidden Archaeal and Bacterial Lipid Producers in a Euxinic Marine System
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2025.We investigated the bacterial and archaeal membrane lipids in the Black Sea, focusing on isoprenoidal and branched GDGTs, combining high‐resolution accurate mass/mass spectrometry with metagenomics. Our objective was to identify the potential biological producers of these lipids and to begin understanding their role in microbial adaptation.

Identification, characterization and classification of prokaryotic nucleoid‐associated proteins
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 3, Page 206-217, March 2025.Nucleoid‐associated proteins (NAPs) structure DNA by either bending, wrapping, bridging, or forming protein filaments on the DNA. We review newly identified NAPs and provide a list of simple biochemical assays to study the DNA‐structuring properties of novel NAPs. Abstract Common throughout life is the need to compact and organize the genome.

Chromatin and gene regulation in archaea
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 3, Page 218-231, March 2025.Recent data from diverse archaea with different repertoires of nucleoid‐associated proteins show a common genome‐wide chromatin organisation where chromatin maintains access to gene promoters independently of transcription activity. Abstract The chromatinisation of DNA by nucleoid‐associated proteins (NAPs) in archaea ‘formats’ the genome structure in ...

Regulation of DNA Topology in Archaea: State of the Art and Perspectives
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 3, Page 245-264, March 2025.DNA 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 ...

First crenarchaeal chitinase found in Sulfolobus tokodaii [PDF]
, 2012 This is the first description of a functional chitinase gene within the crenarchaeotes. Here we report of the heterologues expression of the ORF BAB65950 from Sulfolobus tokodaii in E. coli.

Revisit to the biodesulfurization capability of hyperthermophilic archeon Sulfolobus Solfataricus P2 revealed DBT consumption by the organism in an oil/water two-phase liquid system at high temperatures [PDF]
, 2014 The ability of hyperthermophilic archaeon, Sulfolobus solfataricus P2, to grow on organic and inorganic sulfur sources was investigated. A sulfur free mineral medium has been employed with different sources of carbon.
