Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Halophilic enzymes need high salt concentrations for activity and stability and are considered a promising source for biotechnological applications. The model study for haloadaptation has been proteins from the Halobacteria class of Archaea, where common

Stringency and relaxation among the halobacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1993 Accumulation of stable RNA and production of guanosine polyphosphates (ppGpp and pppGpp) were studied during amino acid starvation in four species of halobacteria. In two of the four species, stable RNA was under stringent control, whereas one of the remaining two species was relaxed and the other gave an intermediate phenotype.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Restriction-modification (RM) systems have evolved to protect the cell from invading DNAs and are composed of two enzymes: a DNA methyltransferase and a restriction endonuclease. Although RM systems are present in both archaeal and bacterial genomes, DNA

A Study of the Cell Envelope of the Halobacteria [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1969 SUMMARY: Electron microscopy on thin sections of three different extremely halophilic Halobacterium species showed that their cell envelopes were of similar general construction: an inner membrane and an outer layer. The outer layer stains most strongly in the outermost part.

Distribution of Denitrification among Haloarchaea: A Comprehensive Study
Microorganisms, 2021 Microorganisms from the Halobacteria class, also known as haloarchaea, inhabit a wide range of ecosystems of which the main characteristic is the presence of high salt concentration.

Halobacteria as producers of polyhydroxyalkanoates [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Haloferax mediterranei, an extremely halophilic archaeobacterium, is an efficient producer of poly-s-hydroxyalkanoates (PHA) that are accumulated with high yield from starch as sole carbon and energy source, the advantages of using this microorganism as PHA producer are discussed.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 The genus Natronomonas is classified on the family Haloarculaceae, within the class Halobacteria and currently includes six species isolated from salterns, saline or soda lakes, and salt mines. All are extremely halophilic (optimal growth at 20–25% [w/v]

Major Reference Works, Page 1-12., 2019 Bergey's Manual of Systematics of Archaea and Bacteria (BMSAB) is a reference work aimed at undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, professors and experienced professionals at all levels. About a hundred new genera and 600+ new species have been described per year for each of the last 5 years.

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.
