| Abstract | Ignicoccus hospitalis, a hyperthermophilic, chemolithoautotrophic crenarchaeon was found to possess a new CO2 fixation pathway, the dicarboxylate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle. The primary acceptor molecule for this pathway is acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), which is regenerated in the cycle via the characteristic intermediate 4-hydroxybutyrate. In the presence of acetate, acetyl-CoA can alternatively be formed in a one-step mechanism via an AMP-forming acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS). This enzyme was identified after membrane preparation by two-dimensional native PAGE/SDS-PAGE, followed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight tandem mass spectrometry and N-terminal sequencing. The ACS of I. hospitalis exhibits a molecular mass of ∼690 kDa with a monomeric molecular mass of 77 kDa. Activity tests on isolated membranes and bioinformatic analyses indicated that the ACS is a constitutive membrane-associated (but not an integral) protein complex. Unexpectedly, immunolabeling on cells of I. hospitalis and other described Ignicoccus species revealed that the ACS is localized at the outermost membrane. This perfectly coincides with recent results that the ATP synthase and the H2:sulfur oxidoreductase complexes are also located in the outermost membrane of I. hospitalis. These results imply that the intermembrane compartment of I. hospitalis is not only the site of ATP synthesis but may also be involved in the primary steps of CO2 fixation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
