Ultrasound Imaging Properties of Heterologously Synthesized Gas Vesicles from Halophilic Archaeon

Nanomaterials
Biosynthetic gas vesicles (GVs), as novel nanoscale ultrasound contrast agents, exhibit unique potential in biomedical ultrasound imaging. For example, they are expected to have better tissue penetration through the tumor vasculature for detecting tumor ...

Biosynthesis and Role of N-Linked Glycosylation in Cell Surface Structures of Archaea with a Focus on Flagella and S Layers

International Journal of Microbiology, 2010
The genetics and biochemistry of the N-linked glycosylation system of Archaea have been investigated over the past 5 years using flagellins and S layers as reporter proteins in the model organisms, Methanococcus voltae, Methanococcus maripaludis, and ...

DNA as a phosphate storage polymer and the alternative advantages of polyploidy for growth or survival.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Haloferax volcanii uses extracellular DNA as a source for carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous. However, it can also grow to a limited extend in the absence of added phosphorous, indicating that it contains an intracellular phosphate storage molecule.

Genetic and physical mapping of DNA replication origins in Haloferax volcanii. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2007
The halophilic archaeon Haloferax volcanii has a multireplicon genome, consisting of a main chromosome, three secondary chromosomes, and a plasmid. Genes for the initiator protein Cdc6/Orc1, which are commonly located adjacent to archaeal origins of DNA ...

A rhomboid protease gene deletion affects a novel oligosaccharide N-linked to the S-layer glycoprotein of Haloferax volcanii [PDF]

, 2014
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

Developing High‐Efficiency Electroporation Protocols for Hard‐To‐Transform Halomonas spp.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2025.
Genetic manipulation of Halomonas species has been limited by poor transformation efficiencies. Here, we establish a highly efficient electroporation protocol for Halomonas elongata DSM 2581. This method also proved transferable to other Halomonas strains, encouraging further genetic manipulation work in underexplored species.

Dinucleoside Polyphosphates in Cellular Signaling: Function and Evolution Across Life

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 10, October 2025.
Although discovered more than 50 years ago, the cellular functions of Ap4A and related dinucleotides remain largely enigmatic. To address this knowledge gap, we organized a conference showcasing recent research that highlights the critical role of Ap4A as a global regulator across all domains of life.

d-Xylose Degradation Pathway in the Halophilic Archaeon Haloferax volcanii [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
The pathway of D-xylose degradation in archaea is unknown. In a previous study we identified in Haloarcula marismortui the first enzyme of xylose degradation, an inducible xylose dehydrogenase (Johnsen, U., and Schönheit, P. (2004) J. Bacteriol. 186, 6198–6207).
