In Silico Prophage Analysis of Halobacterium salinarum ATCC 33170

Applied Microbiology
The extremophile Halobacterium salinarum is an aerobic archaeon that has adapted to thrive in high-salt environments such as salted fish, hypersaline lakes, and salterns. Halophiles have garnered significant interest due to their unique interactions with

The double histone fold: Structure, functional implications across the tree of life and relevance to protein design

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The histone fold is one of the most ancient and versatile structural motifs in protein biology, best known for its role in chromatin organization. A remarkable variation of this motif is the double histone fold (DHF), in which two histone folds are encoded within a single polypeptide chain and assemble intramolecularly into a histone‐like ...

Structure determination of the phosphatidylglycerosulfate (diether analog) from Halobacterium cutirubrum

Journal of Lipid Research, 1973
A novel phosphosulfolipid has been isolated as the potassium salt from the extremely halophilic bacterium Halobacterium cutirubrum; its molecular formula was established as C46H93PSK2.

Photocycle of halorhodopsin from Halobacterium salinarium

Biophysical Journal, 1995
The light-driven chloride pump, halorhodopsin, is a mixture containing all-trans and 13-cis retinal chromophores under both light and dark-adapted conditions and can exist in chloride-free and chloride-binding forms. To describe the photochemical cycle of the all-trans, chloride-binding state that is associated with the transport, and thereby initiate ...

Characterization and synthesis of mono- and diphytanyl ethers of glycerol

Journal of Lipid Research, 1968
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.

A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 913-926, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

Precise Capture of Membrane Proteins Using DNA‐Origami‐Constrained Nanodiscs

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
A designed DNA origami structure ensures manipulates and inserts an individual membrane protein in a single, captured nanodisc. Membrane proteins play a key role as cellular gatekeepers, regulating the flow of information and material across lipid membranes.
