Planktonic Archaeal Ether Lipid Origins in Surface Waters of the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Thaumarchaeota and Thermoplasmatota are the most abundant planktonic archaea in the sea. Thaumarchaeota contain tetraether lipids as their major membrane lipids, but the lipid composition of uncultured planktonic Thermoplasmatota representatives remains ...

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Functionalized Membrane Domains: An Ancestral Feature of Archaea?
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Bacteria and Eukarya organize their plasma membrane spatially into domains of distinct functions. Due to the uniqueness of their lipids, membrane functionalization in Archaea remains a debated area. A novel membrane ultrastructure predicts that monolayer

Application of microbial membrane tetraether lipids in speleothems
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs), which are derived from microbial membranes, occur widely in soils, peats, lake sediments, marine sediments, hot springs, and other environments. GDGTs respond sensitively to environmental changes and have become an important tool in paleoenvironmental reconstruction.

Temperate Oligocene surface ocean conditions offshore of Cape Adare, Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2021 Antarctic continental ice masses fluctuated considerably during the Oligocene “coolhouse”, at elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations of ∼600–800 ppm. To assess the role of the ocean in the Oligocene ice sheet variability, reconstruction of past ocean ...

Membrane homeoviscous adaptation in the piezo-hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus barophilus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The archaeon Thermococcus barophilus, one of the most extreme members of hyperthermophilic piezophiles known thus far, is able to grow at temperatures up to 103°C and pressures up to 80MPa. We analyzed the membrane lipids of T. barophilus by HPLC-MS as a
