Discovery of a novel transcriptional regulator of sugar catabolism in archaea
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 2, Page 224-240, August 2023., 2023 A novel transcriptional regulator, GfcR, has been identified that activates the degradation pathways of glucose, fructose, galactose and glycerol in the archaeon Haloferax volcanii. GfcR comprises a phosphoribosyltransferase domain with an N‐terminal helix‐turn‐helix DNA‐binding motif.

Cryo-EM single particle analysis with the Volta phase plate
eLife, 2016 We present a method for in-focus data acquisition with a phase plate that enables near-atomic resolution single particle reconstructions. Accurate focusing is the determining factor for obtaining high quality data.

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2611-2651, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Prebiotics have long been used to modulate the gut microbiota and improve host health. Most established prebiotics are nondigestible carbohydrates, especially short‐chain oligosaccharides. Recently, gluco‐oligosaccharides (GlcOS) with 2–10 glucose residues and one or more O‐glycosidic linkage(s) have been found to exert prebiotic potentials ...

Ubiquitin found in the archaebacterium Thermoplasma acidophilum
FEBS Letters, 1993 Systematic N‐terminal sequencing of the low molecular weight proteins from Thermoplasma acidophilum separated by two‐dimensional polyacrylamide get electrophoresis led to the discovery of a polypeptide with an apparent M r of 4.5 kDa identical as its first 18 amino acid residues to human ubiquitin.

Structure of a AAA+ unfoldase in the process of unfolding substrate
eLife, 2017 AAA+ unfoldases are thought to unfold substrate through the central pore of their hexameric structures, but how this process occurs is not known.

A broad specificity nucleoside kinase from Thermoplasma acidophilum. [PDF]
Proteins, 2013 AbstractThe crystal structure of Ta0880, determined at 1.91 Å resolution, from Thermoplasma acidophilum revealed a dimer with each monomer composed of an α/β/α sandwich domain and a smaller lid domain. The overall fold belongs to the PfkB family of carbohydrate kinases (a family member of the Ribokinase clan) which include ribokinases, 1 ...

Structure of thermoplasmaquinone from Thermoplasma acidophilum [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1985 The structure of the methyl-substituted menaquinone (designated thermoplasmaquinone) from the extremely thermophilic and acidophilic archaebacterium Thermoplasma acidophilum was investigated by mass spectrometry and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry. The results of the present study show that the novel quinone from T.
