We examined the survival potential of methanogenic archaea exposed to different environmental stress conditions such as low temperature (down to -78.5 degrees C), high salinity (up to 6 M NaCl), starvation (up to 3 months), long-term freezing (up to 2 years), desiccation (up to 25 days) and oxygen exposure (up to 72 h). The experiments were conducted with methanogenic archaea from Siberian perm...
Bacteria and Archaea of the air-water surface microlayer (neuston) and plankton from three high mountain lakes (Limnological Observatory of the Pyrenees, Spain) were analysed by 16S rRNA gene 454 pyrosequencing (V6 region) in two dates with different atmospheric aerosol loading conditions: (1) under a Saharan dust plume driven by southern winds; and (2) under northern winds with oceanic influen...
Viruses infect members of domains Bacteria, Eukarya, and Archaea. While those infecting domain Eukarya are nearly universally described as "Viruses", those of domain Bacteria, to a substantial extent, instead are called "Bacteriophages," or "Phages." Should the viruses of domain Archaea therefore be dubbed "Archaeal phages," "Archaeal viruses," or some other construct? Here we provide documenta...
Likely DNA-binding domains in archaeal proteins were analyzed using sequence profile methods and available structural information. It is shown that all archaea encode a large number of proteins containing the helix-turn-helix (HTH) DNA-binding domains whose sequences are much more similar to bacterial HTH domains than to eukaryotic ones, such as the PAIRED, POU and homeodomains. The predominant...
BACKGROUND Horizontal gene transfer, the transfer and incorporation of genetic material between different species of organisms, has an important but poorly quantified role in the adaptation of microbes to their environment. Previous work has shown that genome size and the number of horizontally transferred genes are strongly correlated. Here we consider how genome size confuses the quantificati...
We report here the completion of the genome sequence of a new species of haloarchaea, Haloarcula taiwanensis, isolated in southern Taiwan. The 3,721,706-bp genome consisted of chromosome I (2,966,258 bp, 63.6% GC content), chromosome II (525,233 bp, 59.6% GC content), plasmid pNYT1 (129,893 bp, 55.3% GC content), and plasmid pNYT2 (100,322 bp, 55.7% GC content).
Thermococcus barophilus is a hyperthermophilic, anaerobic, mixed heterotrophic, and carboxydotrophic euryarchaeon isolated from the deep sea hydrothermal vent Snakepit site on the mid-Atlantic ridge at a depth of 3,550 m. T. barophilus is the first true piezophilic, hyperthermophilic archaeon isolated, having an optimal growth at 40 MPa. Here we report the complete genome sequence of strain MP,...
Hemoglobins are ubiquitous in Eukarya and Bacteria but, until now, have not been found in Archaea. A phylogenetic analysis of the recently revealed microbial family of globin-coupled heme-based sensors suggests that these sensors descended from an ancient globin-only progenitor, or a protoglobin (Pgb). Here, we report the discovery and characterization of two Pgbs from the Archaea: ApPgb from t...
Ammonia removal is an important aspect of biological nutrient removal in wastewater treatment processes. However, due to process constraints, inhibiting compounds or more stringent discharge standards the ammonia removal rate can be insufficient. Subsequently, there is an increased need to optimize the functioning of existing treatment facilities. Addition of Archaea bio-systems to wastewater s...
CoA is a ubiquitous molecule in all three domains of life and is involved in various metabolic pathways. The enzymes and reactions involved in CoA biosynthesis in eukaryotes and bacteria have been identified. By contrast, the proteins/genes involved in CoA biosynthesis in archaea have not been fully clarified, and much has to be learned before we obtain a general understanding of how this molec...
