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 ...

Structure-function relationships in pure archaeal bipolar tetraether lipids. [PDF]
Chem Sci, 2023 A series of archaeal bipolar glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) lipids were synthesized. Structural properties of self-assembled structures of GDGTs were studied and related to functional behavior such as membrane fusion.

Tracing tetraether lipids from source to sink in the Rhône River system (NW Mediterranean) [PDF]
, 2015 In this study, we investigated soils and river suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected in the Rhône and its tributary basins as well as marine surface sediments taken in the Rhône prodelta (Gulf of Lions, NW Mediterranean).

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.

Drastic changes in the distribution of branched tetraether lipids in suspended matter and sediments from the Yenisei River and Kara Sea (Siberia): Implications for the use of brGDGT-based proxies in coastal marine sediments [PDF]
, 2015 The distribution of branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) in soils has been shown to correlate with pH and mean annual air temperature.

Depth-related distribution of a key gene of the tetraether lipid biosynthetic pathway in marine Thaumarchaeota. [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2015 The distribution of isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGT) lipids synthesized by Thaumarchaeota has been shown to be temperature-dependent in world oceans.
