• AglC and AglK are involved in biosynthesis and attachment of diacetylated glucuronic acid to the N-glycan in Methanococcus voltae.

  Recent advances in the field of prokaryotic N-glycosylation have established a foundation for the pathways and proteins involved in this important pos…

• Different minimal signal peptide lengths recognized by the archaeal prepilin-like peptidases FlaK and PibD.

  In Archaea, the preflagellin peptidase (a type IV prepilin-like peptidase designated FlaK in Methanococcus voltae and Methanococcus maripaludis) is th…

• Systematic deletion analyses of the fla genes in the flagella operon identify several genes essential for proper assembly and function of flagella in the archaeon, Methanococcus maripaludis.

  The archaeal flagellum is a unique motility apparatus in the prokaryotic domain, distinct from the bacterial flagellum. Most of the currently recogniz…

• Identification of the archaeal alg7 gene homolog (encoding N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate transferase) of the N-linked glycosylation system by cross-domain complementation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

  The Mv1751 gene product is thought to catalyze the first step in the N-glycosylation pathway in Methanococcus voltae. Here, we show that a conditional…
