sn-Glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase is responsible for the formation of sn-glycerol-1-phosphate, the backbone of membrane phospholipids of Archaea. This activity had never been detected in cell-free extract of Sulfolobus sp. Here we report the detection of this activity on the thermostable ST0344

A characteristic feature of the domain archaea are the lipids forming the hydrophobic core of their cell membrane. These unique lipids are composed of isoprenoid side-chains stereospecifically ether linked to sn-glycerol-1-phosphate. Recently, considerable progress has been made in characterizing the

The exclusive presence of glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenases (G1PDH) has been postulated to be a key feature that distinguishes archaea from bacteria. However, homologues of G1PDH genes can be found in several bacterial species, among them the hitherto uncharacterized open reading frame

Lipoteichoic acid (LTA), a glycerol phosphate surface polymer, is a component of the envelope of Gram-positive bacteria. However, the molecular basis for its synthesis or function is not known. Here we report that Staphylococcus aureus LtaS synthesizes glycerol phosphate LTA.

One of the most characteristic features of archaebacterial ether phospholipids is the enantiomeric configuration of their glycerophosphate backbone (sn-glycerol-1-phosphate), that is the mirror image of the structure of the eubacterial or eukaryotic counterpart. The enzyme that forms glycerophosphate of this
