Cellular differentiation into hyphae and spores in halophilic archaea [PDF]
Several groups of bacteria have complex life cycles involving cellular differentiation and multicellular structures. For example, actinobacteria of the genus Streptomyces form multicellular vegetative hyphae, aerial hyphae, and spores.

Genomic survey of sequence features for ultraviolet tolerance in haloarchaea (family Halobacteriaceae) [PDF]
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 ...

Emended descriptions of genera of the family Halobacteriaceae [PDF]
The family Halobacteriaceae currently contains 96 species whose names have been validly published, classified in 27 genera (as of September 2008). In recent years, many novel species have been added to the established genera but, in many cases, one or more properties of the novel species do not agree with the published descriptions of the genera ...

The Structure of Evolutionary Model Space for Proteins across the Tree of Life [PDF]
The factors that determine the relative rates of amino acid substitution during protein evolution are complex and known to vary among taxa. We estimated relative exchangeabilities for pairs of amino acids from clades spread across the tree of life and ...

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

Structural Diversity of Membrane Lipids in Members of Halobacteriaceae
This minireview gives an updated and consolidated summary of taxonomic classification correlated with membrane phospholipid, glycolipid, and core lipid structural diversity within the family Halobacteriaceae. We also point out that the recently reported diversity in the membrane core lipid structure of a putative strain of Halobacterium (Halobacterium ...

Gene orders in the upstream of 16S rRNA genes divide genera of the family Halobacteriaceae into two groups [PDF]
In many prokaryotic species, 16S rRNA genes are present in multiple copies, and their sequences in general do not differ significantly owing to concerted evolution. At the time of writing, the genusHaloarculaof the familyHalobacteriaceaecomprises nine species with validly published names, all of which possess two to four highly heterogeneous 16S rRNA ...
