Biogenesis of DNA-carrying extracellular vesicles by the dominant human gut methanogenic archaeon - Nature Communications
Baquero et al. show that extracellular vesicles produced by the dominant human-gut archaeon are likely formed by budding from the cell membrane and released through disruptions in the cell wall, and c...

On the other hand, our colleagues (Weinberger et al., Nat Comms) used proteomics and metabolomics to study EVs from four human gut archaeal strains, revealing interesting cargos like adhesins, aspartic and glutamic acid, as well as notorious immune-stimulating properties.

Our Cryo-ET data also sheds light on the biogenesis of M. smithii EVs. The results suggest they form by budding from the cell membrane and get trapped under the peptidoglycan layer before being released through disruptions in the cell wall.

In our study, we show that EVs from Methanobrevibacter smithii — the predominant archaeon in the human gut — harbor proviral DNA and circular extrachromosomal DNA (eccDNA) that encodes key enzymes for methanogenesis, suggesting a potential impact on methane production in the gut.
