High impact information on Sulfolobales

Members of the Sulfolobales are able to mobilize heavy metals from sulfidic ores like pyrite or chalcopyrite [1].
A new type of cytochrome b was isolated from the cytoplasmatic fraction of the archaeon Acidianus ambivalens, which is the first soluble cytochrome found in this member of the thermoacidophilic order of the Sulfolobales [2].
In recent years a number of hyperthermophilic micro-organisms of Sulfolobales have been found to produce trehalose from starch and dextrins [3].
The fate of succinyl-CoA in Sulfolobales is at issue [4].
The alcohol dehydrogenase gene: distribution among Sulfolobales and regulation in Sulfolobus solfataricus [5].

Biological context of Sulfolobales

Southern analysis suggest that homologues of the trehalose-producing enzyme genes exist widely in sulfolobales and strains in Sulfolobales were classified into three kinds of genotypes [6].
