Novel Extended Tetraether Lipids Found in a High-CO<sub>2</sub> Geyser. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolCharacterisation of the archaeal lipidome of the CO2‐rich subsurface aquifer of the Geyser Andernach reveals novel extended tetraether lipids analogous to extended archaeols, likely produced by Candidatus Altiarchaeum, and potentially functioning as a membrane adaptation strategy to nutrient‐deprived conditions.

Mono- to tetra-alkyl ether cardiolipins in a mesophilic, sulfate-reducing bacterium identified by UHPLC-HRMSn: a novel class of membrane lipids [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyThe composition of membrane lipids varies in a number of ways as adjustment to growth conditions. Variations in head group composition and carbon skeleton and degree of unsaturation of glycerol-bound acyl or alkyl chains results in a high structural ...
