Microarray analysis in the archaeon Halobacterium salinarum strain R1.
PLoS ONE, 2007 BackgroundPhototrophy of the extremely halophilic archaeon Halobacterium salinarum was explored for decades. The research was mainly focused on the expression of bacteriorhodopsin and its functional properties.

Halobacterium salinarum: Life with more than a grain of salt. [PDF]
Microbiology (Reading), 2023 Halobacterium salinarum is a halophilic (salt-loving) archaeon that grows in salt concentrations near or at saturation. Although isolated from salted fish a century ago, it was the 1971 discovery of bacteriorhodopsin, the light-driven proton pump, that raised interest in Hbt.

The Effect of Bacterioruberin Deletion on Production of Bacteriorhodopsin in Halobacterium salinarum R1 [PDF]
Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry Research, 2018 Bacteriorhodopsin is a retinal protein located in purple membrane of Halobacterium salinarum which acts as light-dependent proton pump. Bacterioruberin is a by-product in bacteriorhodopsin biosynthesis pathway in Halobacterium salinarum.

The Primary Antisense Transcriptome of Halobacterium salinarum NRC-1. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2019 Antisense RNAs (asRNAs) are present in diverse organisms and play important roles in gene regulation. In this work, we mapped the primary antisense transcriptome in the halophilic archaeon Halobacterium salinarum NRC-1. By reanalyzing publicly available data, we mapped antisense transcription start sites (aTSSs) and inferred the probable 3′ ends of ...
