The Main (Glyco) Phospholipid (MPL) of Thermoplasma acidophilum. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2019
The main phospholipid (MPL) of Thermoplasma acidophilum DSM 1728 was isolated, purified and physico-chemically characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)/differential thermal analysis (DTA) for its thermotropic behavior, alone and in mixtures with other lipids, cholesterol, hydrophobic peptides and pore-forming ionophores.

Lipids of Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1972
Cells of Thermoplasma acidophilum contain about 3% total lipid on a dry weight basis. Total lipid was found to contain 17.5% neutral lipid, 25.1% glycolipid, and 56.6% phospholipid by chromatography on silicic acid.

Crystal structure of the Thermoplasma acidophilum protein Ta1207. [PDF]

Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun, 2017
The crystal structure of the Ta1207 protein fromThermoplasma acidophilumis reported. Ta1207 was identified in a screen for high-molecular-weight protein complexes inT. acidophilum. In solution, Ta1207 forms homopentamers of 188 kDa. The crystal structure of recombinant Ta1207 solved by Se-MAD at 2.4 Å resolution revealed a complex with fivefold ...

Flagellation and swimming motility of Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1979
Electron microscopy of thin sections of Thermoplasma acidophilum confirmed previous observations of the absence of a typical cell wall in this organism. Negatively stained specimens revealed the almost consistent occurrence in both strains examined of monotrichously arranged flagella, about 9 micrometer long, which describe a sinuous curve with a ...

Transfer RNA methyltransferases from Thermoplasma acidophilum, a thermoacidophilic archaeon. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2014
We investigated tRNA methyltransferase activities in crude cell extracts from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum. We analyzed the modified nucleosides in native initiator and elongator tRNAMet, predicted the candidate genes for the tRNA methyltransferases on the basis of the tRNAMet and tRNALeu sequences, and characterized Trm5 ...

Ultrastructure of lipopolysaccharide isolated from Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1975
The fine structure of lipopolysaccharide isolated from Thermoplasma acidophilum was examined by electron microscopy. Negative staining of the lipopolysaccharide revealed long, ribbon-like structures with some branching. The average width of the lipopolysaccharide ribbons was 5 nm.

The genome sequence of the thermoacidophilic scavenger Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]

Nature, 2000
Thermoplasma acidophilum is a thermoacidophilic archaeon that thrives at 59 degrees C and pH 2, which was isolated from self-heating coal refuse piles and solfatara fields. Species of the genus Thermoplasma do not possess a rigid cell wall, but are only delimited by a plasma membrane.

Characterization of the Cdc6 Homologues from the Euryarchaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum. [PDF]

Open Biochem J, 2008
Archaeal cell division cycle protein 6 (Cdc6) homologues are thought to be involved in the initiation process of DNA replication. In the present study, a biochemical characterization of the two Cdc6 proteins from the archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum has been performed.

Impact of age-associated cyclopurine lesions on DNA repair helicases. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
8,5' cyclopurine deoxynucleosides (cPu) are locally distorting DNA base lesions corrected by nucleotide excision repair (NER) and proposed to play a role in neurodegeneration prevalent in genetically defined Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients.

Crystal structure of a GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase from Lactobacillus curiae

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 217-223, August 2023., 2023
The 3D structure of a GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase enzyme that is selective for canavanine has been elucidated and shown to share the fold and catalytic mechanism of the polyamine acetyltransferase subclass.Members of the GCN5‐related N‐acetyltransferase (GNAT) family are found in all domains of life and are involved in processes ranging from ...
