This study reveals how archaeal RNA polymerase remodels nucleosomes during transcription elongation by redirecting DNA and displacing histones, using cryo-EM structures of a Pyrococcus furiosus complex.

This study reveals that Ignicoccus hospitalis uses a contractile CdvA-ESCRT-III ring to constrict its inner membrane, leading to multi-cytoplasmic clusters and subsequent release of progeny cells through outer membrane bursting.

This study identifies CsmR as a transcriptional regulator linking motility and cell shape in Haloferax volcanii through transcriptomic analysis and functional experiments.

This study shows that MinD2 in Haloferax volcanii affects cell shape and motility by mispositioning chemotaxis arrays and archaellum motors, and interacts synergistically with MinD4.
