Probing Saltern Brines with an Oxygen Electrode: What Can We Learn about the Community Metabolism in Hypersaline Systems?

open access: yesLife, 2016
We have explored the use of optical oxygen electrodes to study oxygenic photosynthesis and heterotrophic activities in crystallizer brines of the salterns in Eilat, Israel.

Impact of Fire and Heat Stress on Soil Microorganisms: A Review of Community Changes, Molecular Responses and Plant‐Beneficial Roles

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This work reviewed the direct and indirect effects of fires on microbial communities and the resilience strategies microbes use to withstand high temperatures . ABSTRACT Fire, whether occurring on the surface or underground, significantly influences soil microbial dynamics by reshaping community composition, functional diversity and overall soil and ...

Surviving salt fluctuations: stress and recovery in Halobacterium salinarum, an extreme halophilic Archaeon

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Halophilic proteins subjected to below about 15% salt in vitro denature through misfolding, aggregation and/or precipitation. Halobacteria, however, have been detected in environments of fluctuating salinity such as coastal salterns and even around fresh

The primary structure of a procaryotic glycoprotein. Cloning and sequencing of the cell surface glycoprotein gene of halobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The hexagonally patterned surface layer of halobacteria consists of a true glycoprotein. This procaryotic glycoprotein has recently been shown to exhibit novel features with respect to saccharide structure and saccharide biosynthesis.

Comparative analysis of canonical and noncanonical rhodopsins in Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium veneficum

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 360-376, April 2026.
Abstract Rhodopsins are ancient and versatile light‐sensitive proteins, widely distributed across microbial life. In dinoflagellates, however, their diversity and function remain poorly understood, owing to the lineage's extreme genomic divergence. Here, we surveyed the rhodopsin complements of two dinoflagellates, Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium ...

Lipid composition of integral purple membrane by 1H and 31P NMR

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
In the purple membrane (PM) of halobacteria, lipids stabilize the trimeric arrangement of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) molecules and mediate the packing of the trimers in a regular crystalline arrangement.

From Lake Victoria to the Tap: Antibiotic Resistance and Pathogenic Contamination of Kisumu City Water Supply and Wastewater Network

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 547-559, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Waterborne diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose mounting public health threats across sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions dependent on untreated or poorly treated surface waters. This study applied shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise microbial communities, virulence factors and antibiotic ...

Variable rRNA gene copies in extreme halobacteria

open access: yes, 2020
Using PFG electrophoresis techniques, we have examined the organization of rRNA gene in halobacterium species. The results show that the organization of rRNA genes among closely related halobacteria is quite heterogeneous.

Exploring tRNA gene cluster in archaea

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2019
BACKGROUND Shared traits between prokaryotes and eukaryotes are helpful in the understanding of the tree of life evolution. In bacteria and eukaryotes, it has been shown a particular organisation of tRNA genes as clusters, but this trait has not been ...

Proposed Minimal Standards for Description of New Taxa of the Class Halobacteria

open access: yes
Halophilic archaea of the class Halobacteria are the most salt-requiring prokaryotes within the domain Archaea. In 1997, minimal standards for the description of new taxa in the order Halobacteriales were proposed. From then on, the taxonomy of the class
