This study identifies Sul14a as a nucleoid-associated protein in Sulfolobales that regulates chromatin organization and cell cycle progression through DNA binding and transcriptional changes.

This study identifies three transcription factors that regulate the archaeal cell cycle in Saccharolobus islandicus through a braking point mechanism, differing from eukaryotic regulation.

This study investigates the roles and transcriptional regulation of three cellulases in the thermoacidophilic archaeon Saccharolobus islandicus, revealing regulatory mechanisms and their association with cellular processes.

This study shows that phosphorylation of a proteasome subunit by ePK2 inhibits proteasome assembly and regulates cell division in Sulfolobales archaea.

This study identifies a new class of OLD family ATPases in archaea, showing Cran1 is essential for cell cycle progression rather than antiviral defense.

This study identifies new components of the Ced and Ups systems in Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A and shows their roles in DNA import/export and cell aggregation.
