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 ...

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]
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.

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
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.

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
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
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
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
