The archaeal class Halobacteria and astrobiology: Knowledge gaps and research opportunities
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Water bodies on Mars and the icy moons of the outer solar system are now recognized as likely being associated with high levels of salt. Therefore, the study of high salinity environments and their inhabitants has become increasingly relevant for ...

Halovirus HF2 Intergenic Repeat Sequences Carry Promoters
Viruses, 2021 Halovirus HF2 was the first member of the Haloferacalesvirus genus to have its genome fully sequenced, which revealed two classes of intergenic repeat (IR) sequences: class I repeats of 58 bp in length, and class II repeats of 29 bp in length.

Characterization of plasmids in halobacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1981 Extrachromosomal, covalently closed circular deoxyribonucleic acid has been isolated from different species of halobacteria. Three strains of Halobacterium halobium and one of Halobacterium cutirubrum, all of which synthesize purple membrane (Pum+) and bacterioruberin (Rub+), contain plasmids of different size which share extensive sequence homologies.

Susceptibility of Halobacteria to Heavy Metals [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1987 Sixty-eight halobacteria, including both culture collection strains and fresh isolates from widely differing geographical areas, were tested for susceptibility to arsenate, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, silver, and zinc ions by an agar dilution technique.

The ecology and taxonomy of halobacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1986 Abstract Archaebacterial halophiles dominate naturally occurring brines as the concentration of salts approaches saturation. Although only 4 genera of these bacteria have been recognised (Halobacterium, Halococcus, Natronobacterium, Natronococcus), chemotaxonomic studies indicate that there are 4 or 5 additional distinct groups.

Diversity and Potential Multifunctionality of Archaeal CetZ Tubulin-like Cytoskeletal Proteins
Biomolecules, 2023 Tubulin superfamily (TSF) proteins are widespread, and are known for their multifaceted roles as cytoskeletal proteins underpinning many basic cellular functions, including morphogenesis, division, and motility.
