Isolation and Characterization of Cell Envelope Fragments Comprising Archaeal S-Layer Proteins

The outermost component of cell envelopes of most bacteria and almost all archaea comprise a protein lattice, which is termed Surface (S-)layer. The S-layer lattice constitutes a highly porous structure with regularly arranged pores in the nm-range. Some archaea thrive in extreme milieus, thus produ...
