Identification of lipophilic bioproduct portfolio from bioreactor samples of extreme halophilic archaea with HPLC-MS/MS [PDF]
, 2014 Extreme halophilic archaea are a yet unexploited source of natural carotenoids. At elevated salinities, however, material corrosivity issues occur and the performance of analytical methods is strongly affected.

Ubiquitousness of Haloferax and Carotenoid Producing Genes in Arabian Sea Coastal Biosystems of India [PDF]
, 2021 This study presents a comparative analysis of halophiles from the global open sea and coastal biosystems through shotgun metagenomes (n = 209) retrieved from public repositories. The open sea was significantly enriched with Prochlorococcus and Candidatus

Bacterial‐like nitric oxide synthase in the haloalkaliphilic archaeon Natronomonas pharaonis
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 9, Issue 11, November 2020., 2020 This study details the first characterization of an Archaeal NOS enzyme, whereby bioinformatic and biochemical approaches confirm that Natronomonas pharaonis ORF NP_1908A encodes a bacterial NOS‐like protein which can catalyze NO production in vitro. This study is also the first to describe genetic manipulation of Nmn.

A global perspective on carotenoids: metabolism, biotechnology, and benefits for nutrition and health. [PDF]
, 2018 Carotenoids are lipophilic isoprenoid compounds synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms and some non-photosynthetic bacteria and fungi. With some notable exceptions, animals (including humans) do not produce carotenoids de novo but take them in ...

Species Widely Distributed in Halophilic Archaea Exhibit Opsin-Mediated Inhibition of Bacterioruberin Biosynthesis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2019 All organisms use a variety of mechanisms to allocate limited resources to match their needs in their current environment. Here, we explore how halophilic microbes use a novel mechanism to allow efficient production of rhodopsin, a complex of an opsin protein and a retinal prosthetic group.

Carotenoids as a Protection Mechanism against Oxidative Stress in Haloferax mediterranei [PDF]
, 2020 Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms that in their natural ecosystem encounter several sources of oxidative stress. They have developed different strategies to cope with these harsh environmental conditions, among which bacterioruberin production
