Genomic stability in the archaeae Haloferax volcanii and Haloferax mediterranei [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1995 Through hybridization of available probes, we have added nine genes to the macrorestriction map of the Haloferax mediterranei chromosome and five genes to the contig map of Haloferax volcanii. Additionally, we hybridized 17 of the mapped cosmid clones from H. volcanii to the H. mediterranei genome. The resulting 35-point chromosomal comparison revealed

Production of an Extracellular Polysaccharide by Haloferax mediterranei [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1988 The extremely halophilic archaebacterium Haloferax mediterranei produces an exocellular polymeric substance that gives the colonies a typical mucous character and is responsible for the appearance of a superficial layer in unshaken liquid medium.

Carotenoids as a Protection Mechanism against Oxidative Stress in Haloferax mediterranei. [PDF]
Antioxidants (Basel), 2020 Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms that in their natural ecosystem encounter several sources of oxidative stress. They have developed different strategies to cope with these harsh environmental conditions, among which bacterioruberin production is a very notable strategy.

Towards the Elucidation of Assimilative nasABC Operon Transcriptional Regulation in Haloferax mediterranei. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2021 The assimilatory pathway of the nitrogen cycle in the haloarchaeon Haloferax mediterranei has been well described and characterized in previous studies. However, the regulatory mechanisms involved in the gene expression of this pathway remain unknown in haloarchaea.

Analysis of Lsm Protein-Mediated Regulation in the Haloarchaeon Haloferax mediterranei. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciThe Sm protein superfamily includes Sm, like-Sm (Lsm), and Hfq found in the Eukarya, Archaea, and Bacteria domains. Archaeal Lsm proteins have been shown to bind sRNAs and are probably involved in various cellular processes, suggesting a similar function in regulating sRNAs by Hfq in bacteria.
