Growth Kinetics of Extremely Halophilic Archaea (Family Halobacteriaceae ) as Revealed by Arrhenius Plots [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Bacteriology, 2005
ABSTRACT Members of the family Halobacteriaceae in the domain Archaea are obligate extreme halophiles. They occupy a variety of hypersaline environments, and their cellular biochemistry functions in a nearly saturated salty milieu.

Taxonomy of the family Halobacteriaceae: a paradigm for changing concepts in prokaryote systematics [PDF]

open access: hybridInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2012
The halophilic Archaea of the familyHalobacteriaceae(36 genera with 129 species with standing in nomenclature as of November 2011) provide an excellent example of how changing concepts on prokaryote taxonomy and the development of new methods have influenced the way in which the taxonomy of a single group of prokaryotes is treated. This review gives an

Halopelagius inordinatus gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Halobacteriaceae isolated from a marine solar saltern [PDF]

open access: closedInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2010
Two extremely halophilic archaea, strains RO5-2Tand RO5-14, were isolated from Rudong marine solar saltern in Jiangsu, China. Cells of the two strains were pleomorphic, motile and stained Gram-negative. Colonies were red-pigmented. Strains RO5-2Tand RO5-14 were able to grow at 20–50 °C (optimum 37 °C), at 2.6–4.8 M NaCl (optimum 3.4–3.9 M NaCl), at 0 ...

Taxonomy of the family Halobacteriaceae and the description of two newgenera Halorubrobacterium and Natrialba.

open access: bronzeThe Journal of General and Applied Microbiology, 1995
Complete sequences of 16S rRNA encoding genes from extreme halophiles Halobacterium saccharovorum, Halobacterium lacusprofundi, and Halobacterium distributum were determined. The polar lipids, particularly the glycolipids, of these and 20 other isolates were also analyzed.

Genomic survey of sequence features for ultraviolet tolerance in haloarchaea (family Halobacteriaceae)

open access: closedGenomics, 2007
We have investigated the strategy of Halobacterium sp. NRC-1 and other members of the family Halobacteriaceae to survive ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, based on an integrated analysis of various genomic and proteomic features such as dinucleotide composition and distribution of tetranucleotides in the genome and amino acid composition of the proteins ...

Phylogenetic relationships within the family Halobacteriaceae inferred from rpoB′ gene and protein sequences [PDF]

open access: closedInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2007
In order to clarify the current phylogeny of the haloarchaea, particularly the closely related genera that have been difficult to sort out using 16S rRNA gene sequences, the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase subunit B′ gene (rpoB′) was used as a complementary molecular marker.

Salinigranum rubrum gen. nov., sp. nov., a member of the family Halobacteriaceae isolated from a marine solar saltern

open access: closedInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2014
Halophilic archaeal strain GX10T was isolated from the Gangxi marine solar saltern in China. Strain GX10T was observed to have pleomorphic cells that lysed in distilled water, stained Gram-negative and produced red-pigmented colonies. Strain GX10T was able to grow at 20–50 °C (optimum 37 °C), with 1.4–4.8 M NaCl (optimum 3.1 M NaCl), with 0–0.7 M MgCl2

Further refinement of the phylogeny of the Halobacteriaceae based on the full-length RNA polymerase subunit B′ (rpoB′) gene [PDF]

open access: closedInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2010
A considerable number of species of theHalobacteriaceaepossess multiple copies of the 16S rRNA gene that exhibit more than 5 % divergence, complicating phylogenetic interpretations. Two additional problems have been pointed out: (i) the generaHaloterrigenaandNatrinemashow a very close relationship, with some species being shown to overlap in ...

“Candidatus Haloectosymbiotes riaformosensis” (Halobacteriaceae), an archaeal ectosymbiont of the hypersaline ciliate Platynematum salinarum

open access: closedSystematic and Applied Microbiology, 2014
The novel ciliate Platynematum salinarum (Scuticociliatia) was isolated only recently from a thalassohaline solar saltern pond (12%) in Portugal. Scanning electron microscopy showed numerous bacterial-shaped cells covering the complete surface of the ciliate.
