Abstract
The development of a sustainable energy economy is one of the great challenges in the current times of climate crisis and growing energy demands. Industrial production of the fifth-generation biofuel methane by microorganisms has the potential to become a crucial biotechnological milestone of the post fossil fuel era. Therefore, reproducible cultivation and scale-up of methanogenic archaea (methanogens) is essential for enabling biomass generation for fundamental studies and for defining peak performance conditions for bioprocess development. This study provides a comprehensive revision of established and optimization of novel methods for the cultivation of the model organism Methanococcus maripaludis S0001. In closed batch mode, 0.05 L serum bottles cultures were gradually replaced by 0.4 L Schott bottle cultures for regular biomass generation, and the time for reaching peak optical density (OD578) values was reduced in half. In 1.5 L reactor cultures, various agitation, harvesting and transfer methods were compared resulting in a specific growth rate of 0.16 h-1 and the highest recorded OD578 of 3.4. Finally, a 300-fold scale-up from serum bottles was achieved by growing M. maripaludis for the first time in a 22 L stainless steel bioreactor with 15 L working volume. Altogether, the experimental approaches described in this study contribute to establishing methanogens as essential organisms in large-scale biotechnology applications, a crucial stage of an urgently needed industrial evolution toward sustainable biosynthesis of energy and high value products.

Abstract
Methanococcus maripaludis is a rapidly growing, fully sequenced, genetically tractable model organism among hydrogenotrophic methanogens. It has the ability to convert CO2 and H2 into a useful cleaner energy fuel (CH4). In fact, this conversion enhances in the presence of free nitrogen as the sole nitrogen source due to prolonged cell growth. Given the global importance of GHG emissions and climate change, diazotrophy can be attractive for carbon capture and utilization applications from appropriately treated flue gases, where surplus hydrogen is available from renewable electricity sources. In addition, M. maripaludis can be engineered to produce other useful products such as terpenoids, hydrogen, methanol, etc. M. maripaludis with its unique abilities has the potential to be a workhorse like Escherichia coli and S. cerevisiae for fundamental and experimental biotechnology studies. More than 100 experimental studies have explored different specific aspects of the biochemistry and genetics of CO2 and N2 fixation by M. maripaludis. Its genome-scale metabolic model (iMM518) also exists to study genetic perturbations and complex biological interactions. However, a comprehensive review describing its cell structure, metabolic processes, and methanogenesis is still lacking in the literature. This review fills this crucial gap. Specifically, it integrates distributed information from the literature to provide a complete and detailed view for metabolic processes such as acetyl-CoA synthesis, pyruvate synthesis, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, reductive tricarboxylic acid (RTCA) cycle, non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (NOPPP), nitrogen metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and nucleotide biosynthesis. It discusses energy production via methanogenesis and its relation to metabolism. Furthermore, it reviews taxonomy, cell structure, culture/storage conditions, molecular biology tools, genome-scale models, and potential industrial and environmental applications. Through the discussion, it develops new insights and hypotheses from experimental and modeling observations, and identifies opportunities for further research and applications.

Abstract
Leukotrienes are pro-inflammatory lipid mediators, which are biosynthesized via the lipoxygenase pathway of the arachidonic acid cascade. Lipoxygenases form a family of lipid peroxidizing enzymes and human lipoxygenase isoforms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory, hyperproliferative (cancer) and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipoxygenases are not restricted to humans but also occur in a large number of pro- and eucaryotic organisms. Lipoxygenase-like sequences have been identified in the three domains of life (bacteria, archaea, eucarya) but because of lacking functional data the occurrence of catalytically active lipoxygenases in archaea still remains an open question. Although the physiological and/or pathophysiological functions of various lipoxygenase isoforms have been studied throughout the last three decades there is no unifying concept for the biological importance of these enzymes. In this review we are summarizing the current knowledge on the distribution of lipoxygenases in living single and multicellular organisms with particular emphasis to higher vertebrates and will also focus on the genetic diversity of enzymes and receptors involved in human leukotriene signaling.

Abstract
Motility driven by rotational movement of flagella allows bacteria and archaea to seek favourable conditions and escape toxic ones. However, archaeal flagella share structural similarities with bacterial type IV pili rather than bacterial flagella. The Haloferax volcanii genome contains two flagellin genes, flgA1 and flgA2. While FlgA1 has been shown to be a major flagellin, the function of FlgA2 is elusive. In this study, it was determined that although FlgA2 by itself does not confer motility to non-motile ΔflgA1 Hfx. volcanii, a subset of these mutant cells contains a flagellum. Consistent with FlgA2 being assembled into functional flagella, FlgA1 expressed from a plasmid can only complement a ΔflgA1 strain when co-expressed with chromosomal or plasmid-encoded FlgA2. Surprisingly, a mutant strain lacking FlgA2, but expressing chromosomally encoded FlgA1, is hypermotile, a phenotype that is accompanied by an increased number of flagella per cell, as well as an increased flagellum length. Site-directed mutagenesis resulting in early translational termination of flgA2 suggests that the hypermotility of the ΔflgA2 strain is not due to transcriptional regulation. This, and the fact that plasmid-encoded FlgA2 expression in a ΔflgA2 strain does not reduce its hypermotility, suggests a possible regulatory role for FlgA2 that depends on the relative abundance of FlgA1. Taken together, our results indicate that FlgA2 plays both structural and regulatory roles in Hfx. volcanii flagella-dependent motility. Future studies will build upon the data presented here to elucidate the significance of the hypermotility of this ΔflgA2 mutant, and will illuminate the regulation and function of archaeal flagella.

Abstract
Prokaryotic cells move through liquids or over moist surfaces by swimming, swarming, gliding, twitching or floating. An impressive diversity of motility mechanisms has evolved in prokaryotes. Movement can involve surface appendages, such as flagella that spin, pili that pull and Mycoplasma 'legs' that walk. Internal structures, such as the cytoskeleton and gas vesicles, are involved in some types of motility, whereas the mechanisms of some other types of movement remain mysterious. Regardless of the type of motility machinery that is employed, most motile microorganisms use complex sensory systems to control their movements in response to stimuli, which allows them to migrate to optimal environments.

Abstract
One of the first hurdles to be negotiated in the postgenomic era involves the description of the entire protein content of the cell, the proteome. Such efforts are presently complicated by the various posttranslational modifications that proteins can experience, including glycosylation, lipid attachment, phosphorylation, methylation, disulfide bond formation, and proteolytic cleavage. Whereas these and other posttranslational protein modifications have been well characterized in Eucarya and Bacteria, posttranslational modification in Archaea has received far less attention. Although archaeal proteins can undergo posttranslational modifications reminiscent of what their eucaryal and bacterial counterparts experience, examination of archaeal posttranslational modification often reveals aspects not previously observed in the other two domains of life. In some cases, posttranslational modification allows a protein to survive the extreme conditions often encountered by Archaea. The various posttranslational modifications experienced by archaeal proteins, the molecular steps leading to these modifications, and the role played by posttranslational modification in Archaea form the focus of this review.

Abstract
SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) proteins are highly conserved and present in eukaryotes, bacteria and archaea. They function in chromosome condensation and segregation and in DNA repair. Using an insertion vector containing the pac gene for resistance to puromycin, we have created an insertion in the smc gene of Methanococcus voltae. We used epifluorescence microscopy to examine the cell and nucleoid morphology, DNA content and metabolic activity. This insertion causes gross defects in chromosome segregation and cell morphology. Approximately 20% of mutant cells contain little or no DNA, and a subset of cells ( approximately 2%) IS abnormally large (three to four times their normal diameter) titan cells. We believe that these titan cells indicate cell division arrest at a cell cycle checkpoint. The results confirm that SMC in archaea is an important player in chromosome dynamics (as it is in bacteria and eukaryotes).

Abstract
The properties and molecular organization of flagella--the bacterial and archaeal motility organelles--are reviewed. The organization of these functional motility elements of prokaryotic organisms belonging to different kingdoms is compared. A mechanism for both in vivo and in vitro assembly of bacterial flagellum filaments (BFFs) is discussed, and similarity is supposed between flagellin and actin with regard to their polymeric forms (BFF and F-actin). Our own data on intracellular fixation of the Halobacterium salinarium flagellum are presented. Comparative characteristics of intracellular fixation of bacterial and archaeal flagella are also described.

Abstract
Methanococcus voltae possesses four flagellin genes, two of which (flaB1 and flaB2) have previously been reported to encode major components of the flagellar filament. The remaining two flagellin genes, flaA and flaB3, are transcribed at lower levels, and the corresponding proteins remained undetected prior to this work. Electron microscopy examination of flagella isolated by detergent extraction of whole cells revealed a curved, hook-like region of varying length at the end of a long filament. Enrichment of the curved region of the flagella resulted in the identification of FlaB3 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and N-terminal sequencing, and the localization of this flagellin to the cell-proximal portion of the flagellum was confirmed through immunoblotting and immunoelectron microscopy with FlaB3-specific antibodies, indicating that FlaB3 likely composes the curved portion of the flagella. This could represent a unique case of a flagellin performing the role of the bacterial hook protein. FlaA-specific antibodies were used in immunoblotting to determine that FlaA is found throughout the flagellar filament. M. voltae cells were transformed with a modified flaA gene containing a hemagglutinin (HA) tag introduced into the variable region. Transformants that had replaced the wild-type copy of the flaA gene with the HA-tagged version incorporated the HA-tagged version of FlaA into flagella which appeared normal by electron microscopy.

Abstract
The archaeal flagellum is a unique motility apparatus distinct in composition and likely in assembly from the bacterial flagellum. Gene families comprised of multiple flagellin genes co-transcribed with a number of conserved, archaeal-specific accessory genes have been identified in several archaea. However, no homologues of any bacterial genes involved in flagella structure have yet been identified in any archaeon, including those archaea in which the complete genome sequence has been published. Archaeal flagellins possess a highly conserved hydrophobic N-terminal sequence that is similar to that of type IV pilins and clearly unlike that of bacterial flagellins. Also unlike bacterial flagellins but similar to type IV pilins, archaeal flagellins are initially synthesized with a short leader peptide that is cleaved by a membrane-located peptidase. With recent advances in genetic transfer systems in archaea, knockouts have been reported in several genes involved in flagellation in different archaea. In addition, techniques to isolate flagella with attached hook and anchoring structures have been developed. Analysis of these preparations is under way to identify minor structural components of archaeal flagella. This and the continued isolation and characterization of flagella mutants should lead to significant advances in our knowledge of the composition and assembly of archaeal flagella.

Abstract
Haloarchaeal flagella are composed of a number of distinct flagellin proteins, specified by genes in two separate operons (A and B). The roles of these flagellins were assessed by studying mutants of H. salinarum with insertions in either the A or the B operon. Cells of the flgA- mutant produced abnormally short, curved flagella that were distributed all over the cell surface. The flgA2- strain produced straight flagella, mainly found at the poles. The flgB- mutant had flagella of the same size and spiral shape as wild-type cells, but these cells also showed unusual outgrowths, which appeared to be sacs filled with basal body-like structures. In broth cultures of this mutant, the medium accumulated flagella with basal body-like structures at their ends.

Abstract
The methanogenic archaeobacterium Methanococcus voltae (strain PS) is known to produce a filterable, DNase-resistant agent (called VTA, for voltae transfer agent), which carries very small fragments (4400 bp) of bacterial DNA and is able to transduce bacterial genes between derivatives of the strain. Examination by electron microscopy of two preparations of VTA that were concentrated and partially purified by different methods showed virus-like particles with isometric heads, about 40 nm in diameter, and with 61 nm long tails. These particles co-sedimented with the minute bacteriophage φX174 in a sucrose density gradient.

Abstract
Strain PS of Methanococcus voltae (a methanogenic, anaerobic archaebacterium) was shown to generate spontaneously 4.4-kbp chromosomal DNA fragments that are fully protected from DNase and that, upon contact with a cell, transform it genetically. This activity, here called VTA (voltae transfer agent), affects all markers tested: three different auxotrophies (histidine, purine, and cobalamin) and resistance to BES (2-bromoethanesulfonate, an inhibitor of methanogenesis). VTA was most effectively prepared by culture filtration. This process disrupted a fraction of the M. voltae cells (which have only an S-layer covering their cytoplasmic membrane). VTA was rapidly inactivated upon storage. VTA particles were present in cultures at concentrations of approximately two per cell. Gene transfer activity varied from a minimum of 2 x 10(-5) (BES resistance) to a maximum of 10(-3) (histidine independence) per donor cell. Very little VTA was found free in culture supernatants. The phenomenon is functionally similar to generalized transduction, but there is no evidence, for the time being, of intrinsically viral (i.e., containing a complete viral genome) particles. Consideration of VTA DNA size makes the existence of such viral particles unlikely. If they exist, they must be relatively few in number;perhaps they differ from VTA particles in size and other properties and thus escaped detection. Digestion of VTA DNA with the AluI restriction enzyme suggests that it is a random sample of the bacterial DNA, except for a 0.9-kbp sequence which is amplified relative to the rest of the bacterial chromosome. A VTA-sized DNA fraction was demonstrated in a few other isolates of M. voltae.

Abstract
Isolated flagellar filaments of Sulfolobus shibatae were 15 nm in diameter, and they were composed of two major flagellins which have M(r)s of 31,000 and 33,000 and which stained positively for glycoprotein. The flagellar filaments of Thermoplasma volcanium were 12 nm in diameter and were composed of one major flagellin which has an M(r) of 41,000 and which also stained positively for glycoprotein. N-terminal amino acid sequencing indicated that 18 of the N-terminal 20 amino acid positions of the 41-kDa flagellin of T. volcanium were identical to those of the Methanococcus voltae 31-kDa flagellin. Both flagellins of S. shibatae had identical amino acid sequences for at least 23 of the N-terminal positions. This sequence was least similar to any of the available archaeal flagellin sequences, consistent with the phylogenetic distance of S. shibatae from the other archaea studied.

Abstract
Flagellar filaments from Methanospirillum hungatei GP1 and JF1 were isolated and subjected to a variety of physical and chemical treatments. The filaments were stable to temperatures up to 80 degrees C and over the pH range of 4 to 10. The flagellar filaments were dissociated in the detergents (final concentration of 0.5%) Triton X-100, Tween 20, Tween 80, Brij 58, N-octylglucoside, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, and Zwittergent 3-14, remaining intact in only two of the detergents tested, sodium deoxycholate and 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethyl-ammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS). Spheroplasting techniques were used to separate the internal cells from the complex sheath, S-layer (cell wall), and end plugs of M. hungatei. The flagellar basal structure was visualized after solubilization of membranes by CHAPS or deoxycholate. The basal structure appeared to be a simple knob with no apparent ring or hook structures. The multiple, glycosylated flagellins constituting the flagellar filaments were cleaved by proteases and cyanogen bromide. The cyanogen bromide-generated fragments of M. hungatei GP1 flagellins were partially sequenced to provide internal sequence information. In addition, the amino acid composition of each flagellin was determined and indicated that the flagellins are distinct gene products, rather than differentially glycosylated forms of the same gene product.

Abstract
The lack of high-efficiency transformation systems has severely impeded genetic research on methanogenic members of the kingdom
Archaeobacteria.
By using protoplasts of
Methanococcus voltae
and an integration vector, Mip1, previously shown to impart puromycin resistance, we obtained natural transformation frequencies that were about 80-fold higher (705 transformants per μg of transforming DNA) than that reported with whole cells. Electroporation-mediated transformation of
M. voltae
protoplasts with covalently closed circular Mip1 DNA was possible, but at lower frequencies of ca. 177 transformants per μg of vector DNA. However, a 380-fold improvement (3,417 transformants per μg of DNA) over the frequency of natural transformation with whole cells was achieved by electroporation of protoplasts with linearized DNA. This general approach, of using protoplasts, should allow the transformation of other methanogens, especially those that may be gently converted to protoplasts as a result of their tendency to lyse in hypotonic solutions.

Abstract
We have established that the gene which we had previously identified as encoding the Methanococcus voltae P-type ATPase is, in fact, the structural gene for the M. voltae S-layer protein. This conclusion is based on a comparison of the N-terminal sequence of S-layer protein prepared by two independent methods with that derived from the nucleotide sequence of the cloned gene. This conclusion was further supported by immunocytochemical localization of the antigen directed against the antibodies used in the cloning experiments.

Abstract
Methanococcus voltae
cells were converted into protoplasts by suspension in anaerobic 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer containing 0.4 M sucrose and 0.05 M NaCl as osmoprotectants. Protoplast formation was monitored microscopically by observing the conversion of the typical irregularly shaped (uneven peripheries) coccoid whole cells to rounded forms with smooth peripheries. Although the procedure resulted in about 50% lysis of the initial number of cells, the remainder were converted to the rounded form. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electron microscopy of negatively stained cell preparations indicated that the treatment removed the wall layer from whole cells to yield protoplasts. Protoplast regeneration was evaluated by using optimized plating conditions and an anaerobic microplating technique. Between 50 and 63% of the initial number of protoplasts regenerated as colonies on agar medium (35°C, 7 days). The colony and cell morphologies of the regenerated protoplasts were indistinguishable from those of whole cells plated under identical conditions.

Abstract
Purified flagellar filaments isolated from six methanogens were composed of multiple flagellins. Two flagellins were present in Methanococcus deltae (Mr = 34,000 and 32,000), Methanoculleus marisnigri (Mr = 31,000 and 25,500) and Methanococcus jannaschii (Mr = 31,000 and 27,500), three in Methanothermus fervidus (Mr = 34,000, 25,000 and 24,000) and four or more in both Methanococcus vannielii and Methanococcus maripaludis (Mr ranging from 27,500 to 32,000). The flagellins of M. fervidus and M. deltae reacted positively with glycoprotein-specific stains. The flagellins of M. deltae, M. maripaludis and M. vannielii were closely related to those of M. voltae based on cross-reactivity with antisera raised against M. voltae flagellins and homology with flagellin-specific oligonucleotide probes to the N-terminus and leader peptide of M. voltae flagellins. Similarities appear to exist among the flagellins of M. fervidus, M. marisnigri and Halobacterium halobium based on cross-reactivity with antisera produced against the flagella of Methanospirillum hungatei JF1. The N-termini of the flagellins from the mesophilic Methanococcus spp. and M. marisnigri show homology with the N-termini of other archaebacterial flagellins. These N-termini may undergo a modification involving removal of a leader peptide.

Abstract
Methane is a product of the energy-yielding pathways of the largest and most phylogenetically diverse group in the Archaea. These organisms have evolved three pathways that entail a novel and remarkable biochemistry. All of the pathways have in common a reduction of the methyl group of methyl-coenzyme M (CH3-S-CoM) to CH4. Seminal studies on the CO2-reduction pathway have revealed new cofactors and enzymes that catalyze the reduction of CO2 to the methyl level (CH3-S-CoM) with electrons from H2 or formate. Most of the methane produced in nature originates from the methyl group of acetate. CO dehydrogenase is a key enzyme catalyzing the decarbonylation of acetyl-CoA; the resulting methyl group is transferred to CH3-S-CoM, followed by reduction to methane using electrons derived from oxidation of the carbonyl group to CO2 by the CO dehydrogenase. Some organisms transfer the methyl group of methanol and methylamines to CH3-S-CoM; electrons for reduction of CH3-S-CoM to CH4 are provided by the oxidation of methyl groups to CO2.

Abstract
Since bacteria are so small, microscopy has traditionally been used to study them as individual cells. To this end, electron microscopy has been a most powerful tool for studying bacterial surfaces; the viewing of macromolecular arrangements of some surfaces is now possible. This review compares older conventional electron-microscopic methods with new cryotechniques currently available and the results each has produced. Emphasis is not placed on the methodology but, rather, on the importance of the results in terms of our perception of the makeup and function of bacterial surfaces and their interaction with the surrounding environment.

Abstract
The flagellins of Methanococcus voltae are encoded by a multigene family of four related genes (flaA, flaB1, flaB2, and flaB3). All four genes map within the same region of the genome, with the last three arranged in a direct tandem. Northern (RNA) blot and primer extension analyses of total cellular RNA indicate that all four genes are transcribed. The flaB1, flaB2, and flaB3 flagellins are transcribed as part of a large polycistronic message which encodes at least one more protein which is not a flagellin. An intercistronic stem-loop followed by a poly(T) tract located between the flaB2 and flaB3 genes appears to increase the resistance of the flaB1/flaB2 portion of this polycistronic message to digestion by endogenous RNases. The flaA gene, located approximately 600 bp upstream from the tandem, is transcribed as a separate message at very low levels. The four open reading frames encode proteins of molecular weights 23,900, 22,400, 22,800, and 25,500, much less than the Mr values of 33,000 and 31,000 for the flagellins calculated from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of isolated flagellar filaments. Each flagellin contains multiple eukaryotic glycosylation signals (Arg-X-Ser/Thr), although they do not appear to be glycoproteins, and each has an 11- or 12-amino-acid leader peptide. The N termini of all four flagellins (amino acids 1 through 47 of the mature protein) are very hydrophobic, and this region shows a high degree of homology with the flagellins from Halobacterium halobium.

Abstract
Methanococcus aeolicus, Methanococcus maripaludis, and Methanococcus voltae contain similar levels of four enzymes of branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis: acetohydroxy acid synthase, acetohydroxy acid isomeroreductase, dihydroxy acid dehydratase, and transaminase B. Following growth at low partial pressures of H2-CO2, the levels of these enzymes in extracts of M. voltae are reduced three- to fivefold, which suggests that their synthesis is regulated. The enzymes from M. aeolicus were found to be similar to the eubacterial and eucaryotic enzymes with respect to molecular weights, pH optima, kinetic properties, and sensitivities to O2. The acetohydroxy acid isomeroreductase has a specific requirement for Mg2+, and other divalent cations were inhibitory. It was stimulated threefold by K+ and NH4+ ions and was able to utilize NADH as well as NADPH. The partially purified enzyme was not sensitive to O2. The dihydroxy acid dehydratase is extremely sensitive to O2, and it has a half-life under 5% O2 of 6 min at 25 degrees C. Divalent cations were required for activity, and Mg2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, and Fe2+ were nearly equally effective. In conclusion, the archaebacterial enzymes are functionally homologous to the eubacterial and eucaryotic enzymes, which implies that this pathway is very ancient.

Abstract
By light microscopy, Methanospirillum hungatei GP1 stains gram positive at the terminal ends of each multicellular filament and gram negative at all regions in between. This phenomenon was studied further by electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy of Gram-stained cells, using a platinum compound to replace Gram's iodine (J. A. Davies, G. K. Anderson, T. J. Beveridge, and H. C. Clark, J. Bacteriol. 156:837-845, 1983). Crystal violet-platinum precipitates could be found only in the terminal cells of each filament, which suggested that the multilamellar plugs at the filament ends were involved with stain penetration. When sheaths were isolated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-dithiothreitol treatment, the end plugs could be ejected and their layers could be separated from one another by 0.1 M NaOH treatment. Each plug consisted of at least three individual layers; two were particulate and possessed 14.0-nm particles hexagonally arranged on their surfaces with a spacing of a = b = 18.0 nm, whereas the other was a netting of 12.5-nm holes with spacings and symmetry identical to those of the particulate layers. Optical diffraction and computer image reconstruction were used to clarify the structures of each layer in an intact plug and to provide a high-resolution image of their interdigitated structures. The holes through this composite were three to six times larger than those through the sheath. Accordingly, we propose that the terminal plugs of M. hungatei allow the access of larger solutes than does the sheath and that this is the reason why the end cells of each filament stain gram positive whereas more internal cells are gram negative. Intuitively, since the cell spacers which partition the cells from one another along the filament contain plugs identical in structure to terminal plugs, the diffusion of large solutes for these cells would be unidirectional along the filament-cell axis.

Abstract
In high (45 mM)-phosphate medium, Methanospirillum hungatei strains GP1 and JF1 grew as very long, nonmotile chains of cells that did not possess flagella. However, growth in lower (3 or 30 mM)-phosphate medium resulted in the production of mostly single cells and short chains that were motile by means of two polar tufts of flagella, which transected the multilayered terminal plug of the cell. Electron microscopy of negatively stained whole mounts revealed a flagellar filament diameter of approximately 10 nm. Flagellar filaments were isolated from either culture fluid or concentrated cell suspensions that were subjected to shearing. Flagellar filaments were sensitive to treatment with both Triton X-100 and Triton X-114 at concentrations as low as 0.1% (vol/vol). The filaments of both strains were composed of two flagellins of Mr 24,000 and 25,000. However, variations in trace element composition of the medium resulted in the production of a third flagellin in strain JF1. This additional flagellin appeared as a ladderlike smear on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacylamide gels with a center of intensity of Mr 35,000 and cross-reacted with antisera produced from filaments containing only the Mr-24,000 and -25,000 flagellins. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, all flagellins stained by the thymol-sulfuric acid and Alcian blue methods, suggesting that they were glycosylated. This was further supported by chemical deglycosylation of the strain JF1 flagellins, which resulted in a reduction in their apparent molecular weight on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacylamide gels. Heterologous reactions to sera raised against the flagella from each strain were limited to the Mr-24,000 flagellins.

Abstract
Methanococcus voltae produces two flagellins of molecular weight 31,000 and 33,000. Amino acid analysis as well as peptide mapping with cyanogen bromide, chymotrypsin and Staphylococcus aureus V-8 protease indicates that the two flagellins are distinct. N-terminal sequencing of the 31,000 Mc. voltae flagellin as well as the 24,000 and 25,000 molecular weight flagellins of Methanospirillum hungatei GP1 shows an extensive homology with the reported N-terminus of the flagellins from Halobacterium halobium, deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the cloned genes. However, the N-termini of all three sequenced methanogen flagellins lack a terminal methionine and start at position 13 from the N-terminus of H. halobium flagellins. This initial 12 amino acid stretch may be a leader peptide which is subsequently cleaved to generate the mature flagellin, which could suggest flagellar assembly in archaebacteria occurs by a mechanism distinct from that in eubacteria. The high degree of conservation of the N-terminus of the flagellins from Mc. voltae, Msp. hungatei and H. halobium suggests an important role for this sequence, and that the archaebacteria share a common mechanism for flagellar biosynthesis.
