Structure analysis of biologically important prokaryotic glycopolymers [PDF]
Of the many post-translational modifications organisms can undertake, glycosylation is the most prevalent and the most diverse. The research in this thesis focuses on the structural characterisation of glycosylation in two classes of glycopolymer (

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 ...

Distribution and abundance of organic thiols [PDF]
The role of glutathione (GSH) in protecting against the toxicity of oxygen and oxygen by products is well established for all eukaryotes studied except Entamoeba histolytica which lacks mitochrondria, chloroplasts, and microtubules.

Nucleoside diphosphate kinase of halobacteria
Nucleotide diphosphate kinase (NDK) was purified from 12 strains of halobacteria using ATP-agarose chromatography and their N-terminal amino acid sequences were determined. The electrophoretic mobilities of these enzymes differed significantly on the native-PAGE or the SDS-PAGE when the samples were not heat treated.

Microbiology of solar salt ponds [PDF]
Solar salt ponds are shallow ponds of brines that range in salinity from that of normal seawater (3.4 percent) through NaCl saturation. Some salterns evaporate brines to the potash stage of concentration (bitterns).

Purification and biological characterization of halocin H1 from Haloferax mediterranei M2a [PDF]
The production of halocins, bacteriocin-like proteins of ecological significance, is a frequent characteristic of species from the family Halobacteriaceae. Halocin H1, produced by Haloferax mediterranei strain M2a, is a single 31-kDa polypeptide.

A meta-analysis of the publicly available bacterial and archaeal sequence diversity in saline soils [PDF]
An integrated view of bacterial and archaeal diversity in saline soil habitats is essential for understanding the biological and ecological processes and exploiting potential of microbial resources from such environments.
