Identification of acetylated diether lipids in halophilic Archaea
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 3, June 2022., 2022 Archaea‐type ether lipids have been found recently in Bacillales. They are monoether lipids with a C35 isoprenoid chain and are diacetylated by the O‐acetyltransferase YvoF. Phylogenetic studies implied that YvoF homologs also occur in Halobacteria (Archaea).

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.
