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

Voltage clamp studies on S-layer-supported tetraether lipid membranes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1998 Isolated subunits from the cell surface proteins (S-layer) of Bacillus coagulans E38-66 have been recrystallized on a glycerol dialkyl nonitol tetraether lipid (GDNT)-monolayer and the electrophysical features of this biomimetic membrane have been investigated in comparison to unsupported GDNT-monolayers.
