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 shows that archaeal ESCRT-III homologue CdvB1 binds phosphoinositides and helps polarize the cytokinetic membrane in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.

This paper identifies an Asgard archaeon with an endomembrane system that changes with cell state, challenging previous views on eukaryogenesis.

This study investigates how DNA segregation and cell division are coordinated in archaea, identifying regulatory checkpoints and proteins involved in ensuring accurate genome distribution.
