An identity card for sabkha dolomite
An ‘identity card’ for modern sabkha dolomite from Qatar reveals its mineralogical, geochemical and microbial characteristics. This integrated dataset provides a benchmark for recognising similar dolomites in the rock record and for calibrating paleoenvironmental proxies used in climate and biosignature studies.

Characterization and synthesis of mono- and diphytanyl ethers of glycerol
The methanolyzed lipids of the extreme halophile, Halobacterium cutirubrum, were separated into glycerol diether and glycerol monoether fractions. The diether was shown by synthesis to be 2,3-di-O-(3′R,7′R,ll′R,15′-tetramethylhexadecyl)-sn-glycerol.

Characterization and Functional Evaluation of Carotenoids From Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2
Fractionation and comprehensive characterization of C50 carotenoids from Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2, identified all‐trans bacterioruberin as the predominant isomer. The haloarchaeal carotenoid exhibited strong antioxidant activity, photostability in oil and was biocompatible with human keratinocytes, highlighting their potential as sustainable ...

Diversity of FAAL enzymes and prediction of their substrate specificity using FAALPred
Abstract FAALs (fatty acyl‐AMP ligases) recruit and incorporate fatty acids during the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Their diversity, distribution, and substrate specificity remain poorly understood, which limits functional predictions from sequence data.
