The cell cycle of Sulfolobus.
Much of the current information about the archaeal cell cycle has been generated through studies of the genus Sulfolobus. The overall organization of the cell cycle in these species is well understood, and information about the regulatory principles that govern cell cycle progression is rapidly accumulating. Exciting progress regarding the control and molecular details of the chromosome replication process is evident, and the first insights into the elusive crenarchaeal mitosis and cytokinesis machineries are within reach.
