Comparative functional genomics approach for the annotation of proteins in Unclassified Halophilic archaeon DL31 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The structure, function and sub-cellular location prediction for the unknown proteins from Unclassified Halophilic archaeon DL31 were carried out for characterization of the proteins in their respective families.

Life in High Salt Concentrations with Changing Environmental Conditions: Insights from Genomic and Phenotypic Analysis of Salinivibrio sp.

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Life in salt pans with varying chemical compositions require special adaptation strategies at both the physiological and molecular level. The Marakkanam salt pan in South India is characterized with a high fluctuation in salinity (19−490 ppt ...

The Ammonia Oxidising Archaeon Nitrosopumilus maritimus Does Not Alter Iodine Oxidation State in Oxic Seawater

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
This is the first ever study on the activity of the ammonia oxidising archaeon (AOA) Nitrosopumilus maritimus on inorganic iodine reactions. N. maritimus growth was clearly determined by increasing nitrite, but iodide and iodate concentrations remained constant throughout the experiment.

Boundaries of photosynthesis: adaptations of carbon fixation in extreme environments

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1028-1040, July 2025.
Photosynthesis faces challenges from environmental extremes of temperature, pH, and salinity, limiting gas diffusion, modifying membrane fluidity, and destabilizing photochemical and biochemical reactions. Photosynthetic organisms have evolved unique adaptations overcoming these stresses and maintaining their photosynthetic activity.

Role of central metabolism in the osmoadaptation of the halophilic bacterium chromohalobacter salexigens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bacterial osmoadaptation involves the cytoplasmic accumulation of compatible solutes to counteract extracellular osmolarity. The halophilic and highly halotolerant bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens is able to grow up to 3 M NaCl in a minimal medium ...

Uncovering the Mechanisms of Halotolerance in the Extremely Acidophilic Members of the Acidihalobacter Genus Through Comparative Genome Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
There are few naturally occurring environments where both acid and salinity stress exist together, consequently, there has been little evolutionary pressure for microorganisms to develop systems that enable them to deal with both stresses simultaneously.

Halophilic Aspergillus penicillioides from athalassohaline, thalassohaline and polyhaline environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Aspergillus penicillioides is a true halophile, present in diverse econiches – from the hypersaline athalassohaline and thalassohaline environments, to polyhaline systems, and in different geographical locations.

Rings in the Extreme: PCNA Interactions and Adaptations in the Archaea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Biochemical and structural analysis of archaeal proteins has enabled us to gain great insight into many eukaryotic processes, simultaneously offering fascinating glimpses into the adaptation and evolution of proteins at the extremes of life. The archaeal

Building a Geochemical View of Microbial Salt Tolerance: Halophilic Adaptation of Marinococcus in a Natural Magnesium Sulfate Brine

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Current knowledge of life in hypersaline habitats is mostly limited to sodium and chloride-dominated environments. This narrow compositional window does not reflect the diversity of brine environments that exist naturally on Earth and other planetary ...

Charge transport in purple membrane monolayers: A sequential tunneling approach

open access: yes, 2011
Current voltage (I-V) characteristics in proteins can be sensitive to conformational change induced by an external stimulus (photon, odour, etc.). This sensitivity can be used in medical and industrial applications besides shedding new light in the ...
