ABSTRACT In this study we analyzed the membrane lipid composition of “Candidatus Nitrosopumilus maritimus,” the only cultivated representative of the cosmopolitan group I crenarchaeota and the only mesophilic isolate of the phylum Crenarchaeota. The core lipids of “Ca. Nitrosopumilus maritimus” consisted of glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) with zero to four cyclopentyl moieties. Crenarchaeol, a unique GDGT containing a cyclohexyl moiety in addition to four cyclopentyl moieties, was the most abundant GDGT. This confirms unambiguously that crenarchaeol is synthesized by species belo

Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota are two major phyla of archaea which use distinct molecular apparatuses for cell division. Euryarchaea make use of the tubulin-related protein FtsZ, while Crenarchaea, which appear to lack functional FtsZ, employ the Cdv (cell division) components to divide. Ammonia oxidizing archaeon (AOA)Nitrosopumilus maritimusbelongs to another archaeal phylum, the Thaumarchaeota, which has both FtsZ and Cdv genes in the genome.

Abstract:
Ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) are among the most abundant microorganisms on earth and are known to be a major source of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions, although biochemical origins of this N 2 O remain unknown. Enzymological details of AOA nitrogen metabolism are broadly unavailable. We report the recombinant expression, purification, and characterization of a multicopper oxidase, Nmar_1354, from the AOA Nitrosopumilus maritimus . We show that Nmar_1354 selectively produces nitroxyl (HNO) by coupling the oxidation of the obligate nitrification intermediate hydroxylamine (NH 2 OH) to dioxyge

Abstract:
AbstractThe ammonia-oxidizing thaumarchaeal 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate (3HP/4HB) cycle is one of the most energy-efficient CO2 fixation cycles discovered thus far. The protein encoded by Nmar_1308 (from Nitrosopumilus maritimus SCM1) is a promiscuous enzyme that catalyzes two essential reactions within the thaumarchaeal 3HP/4HB cycle, functioning as both a crotonyl-CoA hydratase (CCAH) and 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA dehydratase (3HPD). In performing both hydratase and dehydratase activities, Nmar_1308 reduces the total number of enzymes necessary for CO2 fixation in Thaumarchaeota, redu

Abstract:
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are among the most abundant organisms that exert primary control of oceanic and soil nitrification and are responsible for a large part of dark ocean primary production. They assimilate inorganic carbon via an energetically efficient version of the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle. In this cycle, acetyl-CoA is carboxylated to succinyl-CoA, which is then converted to two acetyl-CoA molecules with 4-hydroxybutyrate as the key intermediate. This conversion includes the (S)-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase reaction. Here, we heter

Abstract:
Archaea are differentiated from the other two domains of life by their biomolecular characteristics. One such characteristic is the unique structure and composition of their lipids. Characterization of the whole set of lipids in a biological system (the lipidome) remains technologically challenging. This is because the lipidome is innately complex, and not all lipid species are extractable, separable, or ionizable by a single analytical method. Furthermore, lipids are structurally and chemically diverse. Many lipids are isobaric or isomeric and often indistinguishable by the measurement of mas

Despite their importance in Earth’s ecosystems, the cellular organization of AOA remains largely unexplored, leading to a significant unanswered question of how the machinery of these organisms underpins metabolic functions.MethodsIn this study, we combined spherical-chromatic-aberration-corrected cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), scanning t

Unlike archaea from other major phyla, genetic tools are yet to be developed for the AOA, and identification of antibiotic resistance markers for selecting mutants is required for a genetic system. The aim of this study was to test the effects of selected antibiotics (hygromycin B, neomycin, apramycin, puromycin, novobiocin) on pure cultures of three well studied AOA strains, ‘Candidatus Nitrosocosmicus franklandianus C13’, Nitrososphaera viennensis EN76 and Nitrosopu

AbstractAmmonia oxidation by archaea and bacteria (AOA and AOB), is the first step of nitrification in the oceans. As AOA have an ammonium affinity 200-fold higher than AOB isolates, the chemical niche allowing AOB to persist in the oligotrophic ocean remains unclear. Here we show that marine isolates, Nitrosopumilus maritimus strain SCM1 (AOA) and Nitrosococcus oceani strain C-107 (AOB) have contrasting physiologies in response to the trace metals iron (Fe) and copper (Cu), holding potential implications for their niche separation in the oceans.

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are key players in the nitrogen cycle and among the most abundant microorganisms in the ocean, thriving even in oxygen-depleted ecosystems. AOA produce the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) as a byproduct of ammonia oxidation. Additionally, the recent discovery of a nitric oxide dismutation pathway in the AOA isolate Nitrosopumilus maritimus points toward other N2O production and consumption pathways in AOA. AOA that perform NO dismutation when exposed to oxygen depletion, produce oxygen and dinitrogen as final products. Based on the transient accumulation of N

ABSTRACT Until recently, microbiologists have relied on cultures to understand the microbial world. As a result, model organisms have been the focus of research into understanding Bacteria and Archaea at a molecular level. Diversity surveys and metagenomic sequencing have revealed that these model species are often present in low abundance in the environment; instead, there are microbial taxa that are cosmopolitan in nature. Due to the numerical dominance of these microorganisms and the size of their habitats, these lineages comprise mind-boggling population sizes upward of 10 28 cells on the

Abstract:
The ocean is a net source of the greenhouse gas and ozone-depleting substance, nitrous oxide (N 2 O), to the atmosphere. Most of that N 2 O is produced as a trace side product during ammonia oxidation, primarily by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), which numerically dominate the ammonia-oxidizing community in most marine environments. The pathways to N 2 O production and their kinetics, however, are not completely understood. Here, we use 15 N and 18 O isotopes to determine the kinetics of N 2 O production and trace the source of nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) atoms in N 2 O produced by a model ma
