Improving the genetic system for Halorubrum lacusprofundi to allow in-frame deletions
Halorubrum lacusprofundi is a cold-adapted halophilic archaeon isolated from Deep Lake, Antarctica. Hrr. lacusprofundi is commonly used to study adaptation to cold environments and thereby a potential source for biotechnological products.

A rhomboid protease gene deletion affects a novel oligosaccharide N-linked to the S-layer glycoprotein of Haloferax volcanii [PDF]
Rhomboid proteases occur in all domains of life; however, their physiological role is not completely understood, and nothing is known of the biology of these enzymes in Archaea. One of the two rhomboid homologs of Haloferax volcanii (RhoII) is fused to a

The toxicity and biodegradability of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) can be evaluated using Haloferax mediterranei as a novel model organism. The haloarchaeon metabolizes specific DES components, highlighting its potential for DES bioremediation. These findings support the use of H.

Genome-wide analysis of growth phase-dependent translational and transcriptional regulation in halophilic archaea [PDF]
Background Differential expression of genes can be regulated on many different levels. Most global studies of gene regulation concentrate on transcript level regulation, and very few global analyses of differential translational efficiencies exist.

Identification of acetylated diether lipids in halophilic Archaea
As a hallmark of Archaea, their cell membranes are comprised of ether lipids. However, Archaea‐type ether lipids have recently been identified in Bacteria as well, with a somewhat different composition: In Bacillales, sn‐glycerol 1‐phosphate is ...

Phosphorylation and Methylation of Proteasomal Proteins of the HaloarcheonHaloferax volcanii
Proteasomes are composed of 20S core particles (CPs) ofα- andβ-type subunits that associate with regulatory particle AAA ATPases such as the proteasome-activating nucleotidase (PAN) complexes of archaea. In this study, the roles and additional sites of post-translational modification of proteasomes were investigated using the archaeonHaloferax ...

Chromatin is an ancient innovation conserved between Archaea and Eukarya
The eukaryotic nucleosome is the fundamental unit of chromatin, comprising a protein octamer that wraps ∼147 bp of DNA and has essential roles in DNA compaction, replication and gene expression. Nucleosomes and chromatin have historically been considered
