OPTiMAL: a new machine learning approach for GDGT-based palaeothermometry [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2020
In the modern oceans, the relative abundances of glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) compounds produced by marine archaeal communities show a significant dependence on the local sea surface temperature at the site of deposition. When preserved in

The effect of meter-scale lateral oxygen gradients at the sediment-water interface on selected organic matter based alteration, productivity and temperature proxies [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2012
A valid assessment of selective aerobic degradation on organic matter (OM) and its impact on OM-based proxies is vital to produce accurate environmental reconstructions. However, most studies investigating these effects suffer from inherent environmental

Variation of Isoprenoid GDGTs in the Stratified Marine Water Column: Implications for GDGT-Based TEX86 Paleothermometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (isoGDGTs) derived from archaea are lipid biomarkers that exhibit high sensitivity to changes in water temperature, leading to the widespread application of the isoGDGT-based tetraether index of 86 carbon ...

Membrane-spanning lipids for an uncompromised monitoring of membrane fusion and intermembrane lipid transfer

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2015
A Förster resonance energy transfer-based fusion and transfer assay was developed to study, in model membranes, protein-mediated membrane fusion and intermembrane lipid transfer of fluorescent sphingolipid analogs.

Carbon Oxidation State in Microbial Polar Lipids Suggests Adaptation to Hot Spring Temperature and Redox Gradients

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The influence of oxidation-reduction (redox) potential on the expression of biomolecules is a topic of ongoing exploration in geobiology. In this study, we investigate the novel possibility that structures and compositions of lipids produced by microbial

Synthetic Approaches to Novel Archaeal Tetraether Glycolipid Analogues†

open access: yes, 2016
Symmetrical and unsymmetrical archaeal tetraether glycolipid analogues have been prepared. The syntheses are based upon the elaboration of lipid cores from versatile chiral starting materials followed by simultaneous or sequential introduction of polar ...

Crenarchaeol

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
The basic structure and stereochemistry of the characteristic glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) membrane lipid of cosmopolitan pelagic crenarchaeota has been identified by high field two-dimensional (2D)-NMR techniques.

Benthic archaea as potential sources of tetraether membrane lipids in sediments across an oxygen minimum zone [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2018
Benthic archaea comprise a significant part of the total prokaryotic biomass in marine sediments. Recent genomic surveys suggest they are largely involved in anaerobic processing of organic matter, but the distribution and abundance of these archaeal ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of the Archaeal Lipid Parallel GDGT-0 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Archaeal glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGT) are some of the most unusual membrane lipids identified in nature. These amphiphiles are the major constituents of the membranes of numerous Archaea, some of which are extremophilic organisms ...
