Examples of archaebacteria
archaebacteria
The energy generation process of the archaebacteria would not work without pyrrolysine.

Researchers in Germany have found a new clue to how archaebacteria survive at extremes of temperature.

It also split the kingdom Monera into the two groups, eubacteria and archaebacteria, as proposed by Woese and Fox.

In 1977 Carl Woese and George E. Fox proposed that eubacteria and archaebacteria both be elevated to the status of super-kingdom.

In the past, archaea were known as archaebacteria, but it has since been found that they are fundamentally distinct from true bacteria.

According to nakano, there are about 50 species of archaebacteria in Japan, occurring naturally in old rock formations and salt pans.

Dr Deisseroth's work makes use of light-sensitive proteins found in single-celled algae and in archaebacteria, an obscure group of micro-organisms.

As they say later in the article, this is a guess, since a date for the common ancestor of eubacteria and archaebacteria has not been calculated.

Archaebacteria occur only in extreme environments where conditions are similar to those which prevailed at the true life originated on Earth.

- Considered ancient life forms that evolved separately from bacteria and blue-green algae
- The Archaea are a group of single-celled microorganisms. A single individual or species from this domain is called an archaeon (sometimes spelled "archeon"). They have no cell nucleus or any other membrane organelles within their cells. ...
- Ancient (over 3.5 billion years old) group of prokaryotes; some biologists want to place this group into a separate Kingdom, the Archaea. Most currently place it within the Kingdom Monera.
- An ancient line of bacteria, including the methanogenic, halophilic and thermoacidophilic groups found in hot springs and sea-floor vents; their ribosomes are distinctive, and they also differ from eubacteria (q.v.) in their ribosomal RNA, wall chemistry, and lipids.
- One of two major groups of prokaryotes; many species of archaebacteria live in extreme conditions similar to those prevalent on primitive Earth.
- The kingdom of prokaryotic cells, excluding eubacteria (considered as a separate domain in certain classification schemes), which is alleged to be ancestral to eubacteria by some evolutionists
- Halophiles (salt), methanogens (methane-producers), thermoacidophiles (hot and acidic).
- An older term for the Archaea.
- An alternative name for the domain archaea.
