Extracellular membrane vesicles (MVs) might be involved in DNA transfer between different hyperthermophilic archaeal species. citation It has been shown that both plasmids citation and viral genomes can be transferred via MVs. Source: Internet
In lefthanded β-helices, the strands themselves are quite straight and untwisted; the resulting helical surfaces are nearly flat, forming a regular triangular prism shape, as shown for the 1QRE archaeal carbonic anhydrase at right. Source: Internet
In bacteria that express a 20S proteasome, the β subunits have high sequence identity to archaeal and eukaryotic β subunits, whereas the α sequence identity is much lower. Source: Internet
Not only eukaryotic viruses integrate into the genomes of their hosts; many bacterial and archaeal viruses also employ this strategy of propagation. Source: Internet
