Enoyl-CoA hydratase mediates polyhydroxyalkanoate mobilization in Haloferax mediterranei [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractAlthough polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation and mobilization are one of the most general mechanisms for haloarchaea to adapt to the hypersaline environments with changeable carbon sources, the PHA mobilization pathways are still not clear for any haloarchaea.

Process Development of Polyhydroxyalkanoates Production by Halophiles Valorising Food Waste

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is an emerging biodegradable plastic family that can replace a broad spectrum of conventional thermoplastics and is promising in the sustainable process development and valorization of organic waste.

Decoding the Chemical Language of Ribosomally Synthesized and Post‐Translationally Modified Peptides from the Untapped Archaea Domain

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 24, June 10, 2025.
Secondary metabolites (SMs) are essential across all life domains, yet those originating from the Archaea domain remain poorly understood. Here, the systematic genome mining and the pioneering heterologous expression of archaeal SMs have revealed the chemical landscape of archaeal lanthipeptides, showing both canonical and non‐canonical forms.

Haloarchaeal carotenoids exert an in vitro antiproliferative effect on human breast cancer cell lines

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Oxidative stress has been linked to the onset and progression of different neoplasia. Antioxidants might help prevent it by modulating biochemical processes involved in cell proliferation.

Enzymatic and microbial routes to bioplastics: The green chemistry frontier of biopolymers

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 709-726, April 2026.
Microbial biosynthesis and engineered enzyme platforms are expanding the design space of polyhydroxyalkanoate bioplastics. By combining fermentation, PHA synthase engineering and cell‐free modular systems, tailored biodegradable polymers can be produced with tunable properties, supporting more sustainable materials and future circular bioeconomy ...

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

open access: yesBiotechnology 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.

In Silico Analysis of the Enzymes Involved in Haloarchaeal Denitrification

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
During the last century, anthropogenic activities such as fertilization have led to an increase in pollution in many ecosystems by nitrogen compounds. Consequently, researchers aim to reduce nitrogen pollutants following different strategies.

Characterization and Functional Evaluation of Carotenoids From Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
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 ...

Lrp as a potential transcriptional regulator involved in stress response in Haloferax mediterranei

open access: yesBiochimie, 2023
The Archaea domain consists of a heterogeneous group of microorganisms with unique physiological properties that occupy a wide variety of niches in nature. Haloferax mediterranei is an extremely halophilic archaeon classified in the Phylum Euryarchaeota, which requires a high concentration of inorganic salts for optimal growth.
