Lipid hydrogen isotope compositions primarily reflect growth water in the model archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]
The stable hydrogen isotope composition (δ2H) of lipid biomarkers can track environmental processes and remain stable over geologically relevant time scales, enabling studies of past climate, hydrology, and ecology.

The use of thermostable fluorescent proteins for live imaging in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]
IntroductionAmong hyperthermophilic organisms, in vivo protein localization is challenging due to the high growth temperatures that can disrupt proper folding and function of mostly mesophilic-derived fluorescent proteins.

Structure of the two-component S-layer of the archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]
Surface layers (S-layers) are resilient two-dimensional protein lattices that encapsulate many bacteria and most archaea. In archaea, S-layers usually form the only structural component of the cell wall and thus act as the final frontier between the cell

A web-based atlas for exploring post-transcriptional regulation in the archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]
The archaeal domain contains organisms that are well-adapted to extreme conditions and changes in their habitat. Post-transcriptional regulation plays a key role in environmental adaptation, including rapid molecular responses to stress conditions.

Interactions of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius with uranium [PDF]
Abstract Interactions of the acidothermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius DSM 639 with U(VI) were studied by using a combination of batch experiments, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS).

Engineering of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius for Hemicellulosic Biomass Utilization. [PDF]
The saccharification of cellulose and hemicellulose is essential for utilizing lignocellulosic biomass as a biofuel. While cellulose is composed of glucose only, hemicelluloses are composed of diverse sugars such as xylose, arabinose, glucose, and galactose.

Genetic Control of Oxidative Mutagenesis in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. [PDF]
Hyperthermophilic archaea are expected to have effective (and perhaps atypical) mechanisms to limit the genetic consequences of DNA damage, but few gene products have been demonstrated to have genome-preserving functions in vivo . This study confirmed by genetic criteria that the S. acidocaldarius
