Hyperthermophilic archaea exhibit certain molecular-genetic features not seen in bacteria or eukaryotes, and their systems of homologous recombination (HR) remain largely unexplored in vivo.

AglH, a thermophilic UDP‑N‑acetylglucosamine‑1‑phosphate:dolichyl phosphate GlcNAc‑1‑phosphotransferase initiating protein N‑glycosylation pathway in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, is capable of complementing the eukaryal Alg7 [PDF]
AglH, a predicted UDP-GlcNAc-1-phosphate:dolichyl phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase, is initiating the protein N-glycosylation pathway in the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. AglH successfully replaced the endogenous GlcNAc-1-

Diversity of DNA replication in the archaea [PDF]
DNA replication is arguably the most fundamental biological process. On account of their shared evolutionary ancestry, the replication machinery found in archaea is similar to that found in eukaryotes.

Asymmetric Reduction of Unactivated Alkenes
Unactivated alkenes rank among the most inert functional groups in synthesis and their selective reduction remains challenging. This Review charts the evolution from classical metal‐catalyzed hydrogenation to radical hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and emerging biocatalytic concepts, highlighting how complementary mechanistic strategies, including the ...

Involvement of a eukaryotic-like ubiquitin-related modifier in the proteasome pathway of the archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. [PDF]
In eukaryotes, the covalent attachment of ubiquitin chains directs substrates to the proteasome for degradation. Recently, ubiquitin-like modifications have also been described in the archaeal domain of life.

S‐Adenosylmethionine (SAM) hydrolases counter increased SAM epimerisation in thermophilic archaea
S‐Adenosyl‐l‐methionine (SAM) is a vital enzyme cofactor. Epimerisation at the sulfonium centre of biologically active (SS,SCα)‐SAM is driven by heat, yielding biologically inactive (RS,SCα)‐SAM. Here, two novel archaeal SAM hydrolases from the thermophilic Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and the halophilic Haloferax volcanii are shown to cleave (RS,SCα)‐SAM.

A systems biology approach reveals major metabolic changes in the thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus in response to the carbon source L-fucose versus D-glucose [PDF]
Archaea are characterised by a complex metabolism with many unique enzymes that differ from their bacterial and eukaryotic counterparts. The thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus is known for its metabolic versatility and is able to utilize ...

Abstract Green tides caused by Ulva species have become one of the most serious marine ecological disasters, now impacting many coastal nations around the world. Although climatic and environmental drivers of these macroalgal blooms are well recognized, growing evidence identifies Ulva‐associated microbiota as potential pivotal regulators of bloom ...

Pyrite Oxidation bySulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]
Two strains of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, a thermoacidophilic archaebacterium, were examined for their pyrite-oxidizing ability. S. acidocaldarius ATCC 33909 was shown to possess iron-oxidizing activity by ferrous sulfate oxidizing experiments, but S. acidocaldarius No. 7 did not have it. Pyrite-oxidizing rate of S.
