Project description:Chemical communication is crucial in ecosystems with complex microbial assemblages. However, due to archaeal cultivation challenges, our understanding of the structure diversity and function of secondary metabolites (SMs) within archaeal communities is limited compared to the extensively studied and well-documented bacterial counterparts. Our comprehensive investigation into the biosynthetic potential of archaea, combined with metabolic analyses and the first report of heterologous expression in archaea, has unveiled the previously unexplored biosynthetic capabilities and chemical diversity of archaeal ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP). We have identified twenty-four new lanthipeptides of RiPPs exhibiting unique chemical characteristics, including a novel subfamily featuring an unexplored type with diamino-dicarboxylic (DADC) termini, largely expanding the chemical landscape of archaeal SMs. This sheds light on the chemical novelty of archaeal metabolites and emphasizes their potential as an untapped resource for natural product discovery. Additionally, archaeal lanthipeptides demonstrate specific antagonistic activity against haloarchaea, mediating the unique biotic interaction in the halophilic niche. Furthermore, they showcased a unique ecological role in enhancing the host's motility by inducing the rod-shaped cell morphology and upregulating the archaellum gene flgA1, facilitating the archaeal interaction with abiotic environments. These discoveries broaden our understanding of archaeal chemical language and provide promising prospects for future exploration of SM-mediated interaction.

Project description:Archaea, together with Bacteria, represent the two main divisions of life on Earth, with many of the defining characteristics of the more complex eukaryotes tracing their origin to evolutionary innovations first made in their archaeal ancestors. One of the most notable such features is nucleosomal chromatin, although archaeal histones and chromatin differ significantly from those of eukaryotes. Despite increased interest in archaeal histones in recent years, the properties of archaeal chromatin have been little studied using genomic tools. Here, we adapt the ATAC-seq assay to the archaeal context and use it to map the accessible landscape of the genome of the euryarchaeote Haloferax volcanii. We integrate the resulting datasets with genome-wide maps of active transcription and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), and find that while H. volcanii promoters exist in a preferentially accessible state, modulation of transcriptional activity is not associated with changes in promoter accessibility, unlike the typical situation in eukaryotes. Applying orthogonal single-molecule footprinting methods, we quantify the absolute levels of physical protection of H. volcanii, and find that archaeal nucleosomal chromatin is at its baseline comparably to slightly more open than that of eukaryotes. We also evaluate the degree of coordination of transcription within archaeal operons and make the unexpected observation that some CRISPR arrays are associated with highly prevalent ssDNA structures. These results provide a foundation for the future functional studies of archaeal chromatin.

Project description:The archaeal ribosome is of the eukaryotic type. Genomic and phylogenetic studies have indicated that TACK and Asgard, the closest relatives of eukaryotes, have ribosomes containing eukaryotic ribosomal proteins not found in other archaeal branches, eS25, eS26 and eS30. In our study, we investigated the case of Saccharolobus solfataricus, a crenarchaea belonging to the TACK branch, which mainly uses leaderless mRNAs. We characterized the small ribosomal subunit of S. Solfataricus bound to SD-leadered or leaderless mRNAs. Cryo-EM structures show for the first time archaeal versions of the eS25, eS26 and eS30 proteins bound to the small subunit. In addition, we identify two novel ribosomal proteins named aS33 and aS34 as well as a domain of eS6, that highlight the diversity of archaeal ribosomes. Leaderless mRNAs are bound to the small ribosomal subunit and the 5'-triphosphate group contributes to their binding. Archaeal eS26 is in the mRNA exit channel wrapped around the 3' end of ribosomal RNA as it is in eukaryotes. Its position is not compatible with an SD:antiSD duplex in the mRNA exit channel. Overall, our results suggest a role of eS26 in translation regulation and possible evolutionary routes from archaeal to eukaryotic translation.

Project description:Ribosomes translate mRNA into protein. Despite divergence in ribosome structure over the course of evolution, the catalytic site, known as the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), is thought to be nearly universally conserved. Here, we identify clades of archaea that have highly divergent ribosomal RNA sequences in the PTC. To understand how these PTC sequences fold, we determined cryo-EM structures of the 70S and 50S ribosomes to 2.4 Å and 2 Å, respectively, from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrobaculum calidifontis. PTC sequence variation leads to the rearrangement of key base triples and differences between archaeal and bacterial ribosomal proteins enable sequence variation in archaeal PTCs. Finally, we identify a previously undescribed archaeal ribosome hibernation factor, Dri, that differs from known bacterial and eukaryotic hibernation factors and is found in multiple archaeal phyla. Overall, this work identifies factors that regulate ribosome function in archaea and reveals a larger diversity of the most ancient sequences in the ribosome
