What order is Thermoproteota in?

What does the word Crenarchaeota mean?

The word Crenarchaeota means: Crenarchaecaea - A class of archaebacteria which can be found in extreme environments like deep underground hot springs and hydrothermal vents.

Crenarchaeota are characterized by the presence of crenation of their cell walls. They also carry a pair of tubular structures called Crenarchaeal flagellum. The flagella are used to propel the cell forwards. They are also known as the archaelles.

Crenarchaeota are found in a variety of habitats ranging from extremely hot environments to extreme cold. The best known member of this class is Archaea which are found in deep sea vents, in sediments and in hot springs. They are the closest living relative to Eukaryotes and Bacteria.

What are the characteristics of Thermoprotei?

0223771.

The thermosome is thought to have originated during the Archaean period (3.8--2. Thermoprotei are able to survive extreme thermal conditions ranging from subzero to extremely hot.

Thermoprotei belong to the order Thermoplasmatales, in the class Euryarchaeota. Thermoplasmatales is part of the superphylum Archaea, which includes most known archaeal phyla. Like all other archaeal groups, Thermoplasmatales have a characteristic cell envelope containing lipids, glycoproteins, and glycolipids. It is this thickened outer membrane that gives Thermoprotei their ability to survive extreme thermal conditions. Archaea that are commonly thought of as thermophiles can grow at temperatures up to 90C.
