Eukaryotic organisms have dynamic genomes, with transposable elements (TEs) as a major
contributing factor. Although the large autonomous TEs can significantly shape genomic …

In theoretical physics, there exist two basic mathematical approaches, algebraic and
geometrical methods, which, in most cases, are complementary. In the area of genome …

Abstract Three thermophilic Nanoarchaeota-Crenarchaeota symbiotic systems have been
described. We obtained another stable anaerobic enrichment culture at 80° C, pH 6.0 from a …

Two new autotrophic carbon fixation cycles have been recently described in Crenarchaeota.
The 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle using acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA)/propionyl …

Thermococcus species are widely distributed in terrestrial and marine hydrothermal areas,
as well as in deep subsurface oil reservoirs. Thermococcus sibiricus is a hyperthermophilic …

Abstract Electron bifurcating,[FeFe]-hydrogenases are recently described members of the
hydrogenase family and catalyze a combination of exergonic and endergonic electron …

Acidilobus saccharovorans is an anaerobic, organotrophic, thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon
isolated from a terrestrial hot spring. We report the complete genome sequence of A …

Phylogenomics aims to describe evolutionary relatedness between organisms by analyzing
genomic data. The common practice is to produce phylogenomic trees from molecular …

Crenarchaeotes found in mesophilic marine environments were recently placed into a new
phylum of Archaea called the Thaumarchaeota. However, very few molecular characteristics …

PLP-Dependent fold-type IV branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases (BCATs) from
archaea have so far been poorly characterized. A new BCAT from the hyperthermophilic …
