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.

A distinct gene expression mechanism for d‐amino acid utilization in hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The genes PH0137, PH0138, and PH0140 form a cluster in the genome of Pyrococcus horikoshii. The PH0140 gene encodes a transcription factor identified as a d‐amino acid‐responsive regulatory protein (DARP). In feast mode, l‐Ile‐bound DARP binds to the promoter and represses transcription of PH0137 and PH0138. In famine mode, DARP binds to d‐allo‐Ile and

Metabolism and Physiology of Halobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Halophiles (lat. “salt-loving”) is the taxonomic group of extreme aerobic microorganisms that live in conditions of high salinity – in the seas, salt lakes, saline soils etc.

Microarray analysis in the Archaeon Halobacterium salinarum strain R1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Phototrophy of the extremely halophilic archaeon Halobacterium salinarum was explored for decades. The research was mainly focused on the expression of bacteriorhodopsin and its functional properties.

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.

Archaeal Tetraether Lipids as Tracers for Past Marine Environmental Change

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Archaea are single‐celled microorganisms that are abundant in marine environments and play a key role in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Archaea can biosynthesize a wide variety of isoprenoid membrane lipids, including isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (isoGDGTs).

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.

Let There be Light! Light as an Engine and Regulator in Synthetic Cells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 24, 8 June 2026.
Cells are out‐of‐equilibrium systems that regulate their spatiotemporal features. In biomimetic synthetic cells, light offers a unique way for energizing and regulating events in space and time. This review explores the implementation of light‐responsive tools in synthetic cells to replicate biological functions and enable new bioinspired behaviors ...

Characterizing Restriction-Modification Systems and DNA Methyltransferases in the Halobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Halobacteria are a class of archaeal organisms which are obligate halophiles. Several studies have described the Halobacteria as highly recombinogenic, yet members even within the same geographic location cluster into distinct phylogroups, suggesting
