Some of these organisms contain methano-chondroitin bound to the S-layer. The cell membranes in these organisms have fatty acids bonded to L-glycerol by ether linkages, rather than by esters. The flagella of these organisms resemble Type IV pili instead of Type III secretory systems. Some of these organisms use Coenzyme M in a pathway that ultimately uses methane to drive chemiosmosis.

For 10 points, name this prokaryotic domain whose name suggests that they are older than bacteria.
