Molecular acclimation of Halobacterium salinarum to halite brine inclusions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Halophilic microorganisms have long been known to survive within the brine inclusions of salt crystals, as evidenced by the change in color for salt crystals containing pigmented halophiles.

The Genome Sequence of the Halobacterium salinarum Type Strain Is Closely Related to That of Laboratory Strains NRC-1 and R1

Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2019
High-coverage long-read sequencing of the Halobacterium salinarum type strain (91-R6) revealed a 2.17-Mb chromosome and two large plasmids (148 and 102 kb). Population heterogeneity and long repeats were observed.

Genome comparison reveals that Halobacterium salinarum 63‐R2 is the origin of the twin laboratory strains NRC‐1 and R1

MicrobiologyOpen, 2023
The genome of Halobacterium strain 63‐R2 was recently reported and provides the opportunity to resolve long‐standing issues regarding the source of two widely used model strains of Halobacterium salinarum, NRC‐1 and R1.

Approach toward enhancement of halophilic protease production by Halobacterium sp. strain LBU50301 using statistical design response surface methodology

Biotechnology Reports, 2016
A new potent halophilic protease producer, Halobacterium sp. strain LBU50301 was isolated from salt-fermented fish samples (budu) and identified by phenotypic analysis, and 16S rDNA gene sequencing. Thereafter, sequential statistical strategy was used to

Expression of microbial rhodopsins in Escherichia coli and their extraction and purification using styrene-maleic acid copolymers

STAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Microbial rhodopsins are photoreceptive membrane proteins showing various light-dependent biological activities. Styrene-maleic acid (SMA) copolymers spontaneously form nanoscale lipid particles containing membrane proteins and associated lipids

The crystal structure of Haloferax volcanii proliferating cell nuclear antigen reveals unique surface charge characteristics due to halophilic adaptation [PDF]

, 2009
Background: The high intracellular salt concentration re quired to maintain a halophilic lifestyle poses challenges to haloarchaeal proteins that must stay soluble, stable and functional in this extreme environment.

The Sulfolobus solfataricus radA paralogue sso0777 is DNA damage inducible and positively regulated by the Sta1 protein [PDF]

, 2007
Little is known about the regulation of the DNA damage-mediated gene expression in archaea. Here we report that the addition of actinomycin D to Sulfolobus solfataricus cultures triggers the expression of the radA paralogue sso0777.

Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase from Halobacterium salinarium [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1972
The enzymatic properties of purified ornithine carbamoyltransferase from Halobacterium salinarium have been studied and compared with those of the enzyme from non-halophilic organisms, and with those of other enzymes from halophilic organisms. The enzyme is stable and active in high concentrations of NaCl, KCl, RbCl and CsCl as are other enzymes
