Deciphering Pathways for Carotenogenesis in Haloarchaea [PDF]
Bacterioruberin and its derivatives have been described as the major carotenoids produced by haloarchaea (halophilic microbes belonging to the Archaea domain).

In hypersaline environments, haloarchaea (halophilic members of the Archaea) are the dominant organisms, and the viruses that infect them, haloarchaeoviruses are at least ten times more abundant.

Haloarchaea as Cell Factories to Produce Bioplastics [PDF]
Plastic pollution is a worldwide concern causing the death of animals (mainly aquatic fauna) and environmental deterioration. Plastic recycling is, in most cases, difficult or even impossible.

Starvation-Survival in Haloarchaea [PDF]
Recent studies claiming to revive ancient microorganisms trapped in fluid inclusions in halite have warranted an investigation of long-term microbial persistence.

Genomic variation and biogeography of Antarctic haloarchaea [PDF]
Background The genomes of halophilic archaea (haloarchaea) often comprise multiple replicons. Genomic variation in haloarchaea has been linked to viral infection pressure and, in the case of Antarctic communities, can be caused by intergenera gene ...

Decoding the Chemical Language of Ribosomally Synthesized and Post-Translationally Modified Peptides from the Untapped Archaea Domain. [PDF]
Secondary metabolites (SMs) are essential across all life domains, yet those originating from the Archaea domain remain poorly understood. Here, the systematic genome mining and the pioneering heterologous expression of archaeal SMs have revealed the chemical landscape of archaeal lanthipeptides, showing both canonical and non‐canonical forms.

Nanohaloarchaea as beneficiaries of xylan degradation by haloarchaea [PDF]
Abstract Climate change, desertification, salinisation of soils and the changing hydrology of the Earth are creating or modifying microbial habitats at all scales including the oceans, saline groundwaters and brine lakes.

Toxicity Assessment and Bioremediation of Deep Eutectic Solvents by Haloferax mediterranei: A Step toward Sustainable Circular Chemistry. [PDF]
The toxicity and biodegradability of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) can be evaluated using Haloferax mediterranei as a novel model organism. The haloarchaeon metabolizes specific DES components, highlighting its potential for DES bioremediation. These findings support the use of H.

The core and unique proteins of haloarchaea [PDF]
Abstract Background Since the first genome of a halophilic archaeon was sequenced in 2000, biologists have been advancing the understanding of genomic characteristics that allow for survival in the harsh natural environments of these organisms.

Understanding the tolerance of halophilic archaea to stress landscapes. [PDF]
The tolerance responses of nine Haloarchaea species were analysed under 70 different conditions, including various salinities, temperatures, oxidative stress and the presence of metals. In general, all characterised species tolerated heavy metals, with a particularly striking tolerance to lithium. These results highlight the relevance of Haloarchaea in
