The recent discovery of extrasolar Earth-like planets that orbit in their habitable zone of their
system, and the latest clues of the presence of liquid water in the subsurface of Mars and in …

Liposomes and planar membranes made of archaea or archaea-like lipids exhibit many
unusual physical properties compared to model membranes composed of conventional …

The major archaeal membrane glycerolipids are distinguished from those of bacteria and
eukaryotes by the contrasting stereochemistry of their glycerol backbones, and by the use of …

Apolar lipids within the membranes of archaea are thought to play a role in membrane
regulation. In this work we explore the effect of the apolar lipid squalane on the dynamics of …

Intrinsic thermodynamic fluctuations within biomolecules are crucial for their function, and
flexibility is one of the strategies that evolution has developed to adapt to extreme …

Archaea constitute one of the three fundamental domains of life. Archaea possess unique
lipids in their cell membranes which distinguish them from bacteria and eukaryotes. This …

The appearance of oxygenic photosynthesis in cyanobacteria is a major event in evolution. It
had an irreversible impact on the Earth, promoting the Great Oxygenation Event (GOE)~ 2.4 …
