Analysis of Haloferax mediterranei Lrp Transcriptional Regulator. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2021 Haloferax mediterranei is an extremely halophilic archaeon, able to live in hypersaline environments with versatile nutritional requirements, whose study represents an excellent basis in the field of biotechnology. The transcriptional machinery in Archaea combines the eukaryotic basal apparatus and the bacterial regulation mechanisms.
