title: Genomes: Methanococcus jannaschii and the golden fleece.
abstract: The total genome sequence of the archaeon Methanococcus jannaschii completes the trilogy of genomes for the three domains of life-Archaea, Bacteria and Eucarya. It will have far-reaching consequences for evolutionary studies and for the way in which experimental biology is performed.
