The Chromosome Replication Machinery of the Archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
In the three domains of life, the archaea, bacteria, and eukarya, there are two general lineages of DNA replication proteins: the bacterial and the eukaryal/archaeal lineages. The hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus provides an attractive model for biochemical study of DNA replication.

Intrinsic sequence specificity of the Cas1 integrase directs new spacer acquisition

open access: yeseLife, 2015
The adaptive prokaryotic immune system CRISPR-Cas provides RNA-mediated protection from invading genetic elements. The fundamental basis of the system is the ability to capture small pieces of foreign DNA for incorporation into the genome at the CRISPR ...

CRISPR-mediated gene silencing reveals involvement of the archaeal S-layer in cell division and virus infection

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The S-layer is a proteinaceous envelope often found in bacterial and archaeal cells. Here, the authors use CRISPR-based technology to silence slaB, encoding the S-layer membrane anchor, to show that an intact S-layer is important for cell division and ...

Redox stress proteins are involved in adaptation response of the hyperthermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus to nickel challenge

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2007
Background Exposure to nickel (Ni) and its chemical derivatives has been associated with severe health effects in human. On the contrary, poor knowledge has been acquired on target physiological processes or molecular mechanisms of this metal in model ...

The Archaeal Elongation Factor EF-2 Induces the Release of aIF6 From 50S Ribosomal Subunit

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The translation factor IF6 is a protein of about 25 kDa shared by the Archaea and the Eukarya but absent in Bacteria. It acts as a ribosome anti-association factor that binds to the large subunit preventing the joining to the small subunit.

Purification and properties of an ATPase from Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1992
A sulfite-activated ATPase isolated from Sulfolobus solfataricus had a relative molecular mass of 370,000. It was composed of three subunits whose relative molecular masses were 63,000, 48,000, and 24,000. The enzyme was inhibited by the vacuolar ATPase inhibitors nitrate and N-ethylmaleimide; 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-Cl) was also inhibitory ...

Extensive lysine methylation in hyperthermophilic crenarchaea : potential implications for protein stability and recombinant enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In eukarya and bacteria, lysine methylation is relatively rare and is catalysed by sequence-specific lysine methyltransferases that typically have only a single-protein target.

A Heterotrimeric PCNA in the Hyperthermophilic Archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2003
The sliding clamp, PCNA, of the archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 is a heterotrimer of three distinct subunits (PCNA1, 2, and 3) that assembles in a defined manner. The PCNA heterotrimer, but not individual subunits, stimulates the activities of the DNA polymerase, DNA ligase I, and the flap endonuclease (FEN1) of S. solfataricus.

The Sulfolobus solfataricus radA paralogue sso0777 is DNA damage inducible and positively regulated by the Sta1 protein

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Metabolism of Pentose Sugars in the Hyperthermophilic Archaea Sulfolobus solfataricus and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
We have previously shown that the hyperthermophilic archaeon, Sulfolobus solfataricus, catabolizes d-glucose and d-galactose to pyruvate and glyceraldehyde via a non-phosphorylative version of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. At each step, one enzyme is active with both C6 epimers, leading to a metabolically promiscuous pathway.
