Archaeal ammonia monooxygenase (AMO) is a cup-shaped homotrimer using a mononuclear CuD site; inhibitors bind bacterial AMO's dicopper center directly but apparently inactivate archaeal AMO indirectly by relocating copper.

This study identifies diel rhythms in viral communities across domains of life, showing significant fluctuations in abundance and transcriptional activity, with NCLDVs showing nocturnal patterns linked to host cycles.

ArchLips provides a database of in silico archaeal lipid structures and spectra to enable high-throughput identification of archaeal lipids from various sources.

The paper examines microbial subcommunity dynamics in large-river deltaic estuaries, finding that their rank structures are persistent and resilient to environmental changes.

This study uses cryo-ET and STEM-EDS to reveal the ultrastructural morphology and elemental composition of Nitrosopumilus maritimus SCM1, identifying two types of storage granules.

This study introduces BASALT, a metagenomic binning toolkit that improves MAG recovery and quality, and applies it to a Salt Lake sediment sample to discover new Lokiarchaeotal MAGs.
