A phylogenetic analysis was carried out of a total of 58 P-type ATPases encoded within the genomes of 20 archaea species. Members from six subfamilies were identified including: putative metal-, proton-, calcium-, sodium/potassium-, potassium-, and magnesium/nickel-transporting ATPases. Six novel putative proton-ATPases from archaea species growing under different temperature and pH conditions were shown to have shorter N- and C-termini than those of orthologous yeast or plant proton-ATPases. Moreover recent biochemical data are reviewed that report functional expression of putative archaea metal- or proton-ATPases in bacteria or yeast.
