The surface of our Earth is wriggling with life: it's the defining feature of our planet, which, far as we know, makes it ...

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 ...

From the flamboyant blossoms and birds of rainforests to the living rainbows of coral reefs, Earth’s surface is teeming with ...

Biofilm formation appears early in the fossil record (∼3.25 billion years ago) and is common throughout a diverse range of organisms in both the Archaea and Bacteria lineages, including the ...

Hocher sifted through over 18,000 bacterial genomes using shorter histone-related proteins from archaea as references. With this strategy, he discovered over 400 bacterial proteins that contain a ...

An international scientific team has redefined our understanding of archaea, a microbial ancestor to humans from two billion ...

Some bacteria and archaea use atmospheric carbon monoxide (CO) as an energy source. Bacteria use an enzyme called Mo-CODH to ...

In a similar analysis for Archaea, the team found that isolate genomes represent ... the JGI continues to work along the lines of increasing genomic representation of bacterial and archaeal diversity, ...

including Asgard archaea, and bacteria. 7 The researchers identified two groups of proteins that were more common in Asgard archaea than in other archaea and bacteria: argonautes, proteins from the ...
