Meniscus‐Mediated Imaging of Soft Biological Membranes Using 200 kN/m Ultra‐Stiff 15 MHz MEMS AFM Probes

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Recognition, Volume 39, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses, among other membrane‐enveloped viruses, can remain infectious on surfaces in ambient air for days. Many bacteria and fungi also expose their plasma membranes to air environments. Key survival strategies in air include hydrophobic coatings to prevent water loss and waxy or silica‐based resistant cell walls.

Molecular organization of selected prokaryotic S-Iayer proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Regular crystalline surface layers (S-layers) are widespread among prokaryotes and probably represent the earliest cell wall structures. S-layer genes have been found in approximately 400 different species of the prokaryotic domains bacteria and archaea.

New Insights Into the Polar Lipid Composition of Extremely Halo(alkali)philic Euryarchaea From Hypersaline Lakes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
We analyzed the polar membrane lipids of 13 strains of halo(alkali)philic euryarchaea from hypersaline lakes. Nine belong to the class Halobacteria, representing two functional groups: aerobic polysaccharide utilizers and sulfur-respiring anaerobes.

Accumulation of Poly (β-Hydroxybutyrate) by Halobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1986
Some species of extremely halophilic archaebacteria, Halobacteriaceae , have been shown to accumulate large amounts of poly (β-hydroxybutyrate) under conditions of nitrogen limitation and abundant carbon source.

Soil microbial communities in restored and unrestored coastal dune ecosystems in California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Most restoration projects involving invasive plant eradication tend to focus on plant removal with little consideration given to how these invasives change soil microbial communities.

Remote Sensing of Chiral Signatures on Mars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We describe circular polarization as a remote sensing diagnostic of chiral signatures which may be applied to Mars. The remarkable phenomenon of homochirality provides a unique biosignature which can be amenable to remote sensing through circular ...

Differences in lateral gene transfer in hypersaline versus thermal environments

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background The role of lateral gene transfer (LGT) in the evolution of microorganisms is only beginning to be understood. While most LGT events occur between closely related individuals, inter-phylum and inter-domain LGT events are not uncommon.

Towards the Understanding of the Function of Lanthipeptide and TOMM-Related Genes in Haloferax mediterranei

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Research on secondary metabolites produced by Archaea such as ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) is limited. The genome of Haloferax mediterranei ATCC 33500 encodes lanthipeptide synthetases (medM1, medM2, and ...

A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 913-926, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.
