The Sulfolobus solfataricus radA paralogue sso0777 is DNA damage inducible and positively regulated by the Sta1 protein [PDF]
Little is known about the regulation of the DNA damage-mediated gene expression in archaea. Here we report that the addition of actinomycin D to Sulfolobus solfataricus cultures triggers the expression of the radA paralogue sso0777.

An exosome‐like complex in Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
We present the first experimental evidence for the existence of an exosome‐like protein complex in Archaea. In Eukarya, the exosome is essential for many pathways of RNA processing and degradation. Co‐immunoprecipitation with antibodies directed against the previously predicted Sulfolobus solfataricus orthologue of the exosome subunit ribosomal‐RNA ...

Crenarchaeal biofilm formation under extreme conditions. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Biofilm formation has been studied in much detail for a variety of bacterial species, as it plays a major role in the pathogenicity of bacteria.

Thermal stability and aggregation of sulfolobus solfataricus b-glycosidase are dependent upon the N-e-methylation of specific lysyl residues: critical role of in vivo post-translational modifications. [PDF]
Methylation in vivo is a post-translational modification observed in several organisms belonging to eucarya, bacteria, and archaea. Although important implications of this modification have been demonstrated in several eucaryotes, its biological role in ...

The Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 genome project
Over 800 kbp of the 3‐Mbp genome of Sulfolobus solfataricus have been sequenced to date. Our approach is to sequence subclones of mapped cosmids, followed by sequencing directly on cosmid templates with custom primers. Using a prototype automated system for genome‐scale analysis, known as MAGPIE, along with other tools, we have discovered one open ...

“Hot standards” for the thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
Within the archaea, the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeote Sulfolobus solfataricus has become an important model organism for physiology and biochemistry, comparative and functional genomics, as well as, more recently also for systems biology approaches. Within the Sulfolobus Systems Biology ("SulfoSYS")-project the effect of changing growth temperatures ...

Ultrastructural and proteomic evidence for the presence of a putative nucleolus in an Archaeon
Nucleoli are subcellular compartments where transcription and maturation of pre-ribosomal RNAs occur. While the transcription of ribosomal RNAs is common to all living cells, the presence and ultrastructure of nucleoli has been only documented in ...

Glutamate dehydrogenase from the thermoacidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
An NAD(P)‐dependent glutamate dehydrogenase was purified to homogeneity from the thermoacidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus. The enzyme is a hexamer (subunit mass 45 kDa) which dissociates into lower states of association when submitted to gel filtration.

Evolutionary rates and gene dispensability associate with replication timing in the Archaeon Sulfolobus islandicus [PDF]
In bacterial chromosomes, the position of a gene relative to the single origin of replication generally reflects its replication timing, how often it is expressed, and consequently, its rate of evolution.
