Albers wondered. Kowalewicz-Kulbat added that the field still doesn’t know whether innate immune cells detect archaeal components, such as lipids or proteins in their membranes and cell walls. Further ...

nov. (strain WWM1085). Archaea are a distinct domain of life—along with bacteria and eukaryotes (i.e., organisms with a cell nucleus such as animals, plants and fungi). Although they appear ...

Amidst the dunes and barren mountains, there are pockets of life—warm, briny pools crusted over with colorful microbial mats of cyano-bacteria and archaea stacked atop one another like crepes. Long ...

This study represents the first successful cultivation of ultrasmall bacteria that parasitize archaea, which evolutionarily ... differences in cell membrane lipids, genetic information, and ...

Archaea are organisms consisting of a single cell without a nucleus and with distinct structural, physiological and evolutionary characteristics. They inhabit a wide range of habitats, including ...

Indeed, archaea and bacteria appear very similar biologically (members of both groups consist of tiny cells without much internal structure) and different from eukaryotes. However, until ...

Ammonia availability shapes the seasonal distribution and activity of archaeal and bacterial ammonia oxidizers ... quantification of intact glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether lipids, and kinetic ...
