An international team of microbiologists from the Medical University of Graz, the DSMZ—German Collection of Microorganisms ...

Archaea—one of the three primary domains of life alongside bacteria and eukaryotes—are often overlooked and sometimes ...

On the basis of the bacteria and archaea communities and their distribution in the waters, the UPV/EHU researchers saw that ...

When subjected to physical pressure, archaea - ancient single-celled organisms - form multicellular structures.

now report a fifth pathway that is used by archaea from diverse habitats. The best-known autotrophic ... is found in anaerobic or microaerophilic bacteria and archaea. A third autotrophic pathway ...

Bacteria form one of the three domains of life; the others are archaea and eukaryotes. Bacterial species and their habitats exhibit great diversity. A low-carbohydrate diet or host mismatch-repair ...

It was only then that they realised they were dealing with a previously unknown group of archaea. Like bacteria, archaea are single-celled organisms. Genetically, however, there are significant ...

an important fuel for other sediment-dwelling organisms such as methanogens (which include marine archaea) and heterotrophic bacteria. The products of these organisms feed back into the carbon cycle ...

While previous research had described bidirectional promoters in eukaryotes, as well as in a few bacteria and archaea species, the new study establishes divergent transcription—the reading of genes in ...

Archaea—one of the three primary domains of life alongside Bacteria and Eukaryota—are often overlooked and sometimes mistaken for bacteria due to their single-celled nature and lack of a nucleus. Yet, ...
