From genomes to function: haloarchaea as model organisms [PDF]
Microbiology, 2006 Haloarchaea are adapted to high-salt environments and accumulate equally high salt concentrations in the cytoplasm. The genomes of representatives of six haloarchaeal genera have been fully or partially sequenced, allowing the analysis of haloarchaeal propertiesin silico.

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 16, August 6, 2025.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.

Small RNA Toxin‐Assisted Evolution of GC‐Preferred ErCas12a for Enhanced Genome Targeting Range
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 29, August 7, 2025.ErCas12a is engineered to target GC‐rich PAMs using a small RNA toxin‐aided positive screening system. The resulting variant, enErCas12a, exhibits an expanded PAM profile and facilitates efficient gene editing in both bacterial and mammalian cells, while preserving high targeting specificity for both canonical and non‐canonical PAM targets.

Haloarchaea as Promising Chassis to Green Chemistry
MicroorganismsClimate change and the scarcity of primary resources are driving the development of new, more renewable and environmentally friendly industrial processes. As part of this green chemistry approach, extremozymes (extreme microbial enzymes) can be used to replace all or part of the chemical synthesis stages of traditional industrial processes. At present,

Detecting chronically infecting viruses of haloarchaea
FEMS Microbiology LettersAbstract The study of archaeal viruses is important for understanding microbial life in extreme environments. However, this study is difficult mainly because they predominantly exhibit a chronic lifestyle, where viral particles are released without causing host cell death.

Halocins and C50 Carotenoids from Haloarchaea: Potential Natural Tools against Cancer
Marine DrugsHaloarchaea are a group of moderate and extreme halophilic microorganisms, belonging to the Archaea domain, that constitute relevant microbial communities in salty environments like coastal and inland salted ponds, marshes, salty lagoons, etc.
