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

Misprediction of Structural Disorder in Halophiles
Whereas the concept of intrinsic disorder derives from biophysical observations of the lack of structure of proteins or protein regions under native conditions, many of our respective concepts rest on proteome-scale bioinformatics predictions.

Bioenergetic Aspects of Halophilism [PDF]
SUMMARY Examinination of microbial diversity in environments of increasing salt concentrations indicates that certain types of dissimilatory metabolism do not occur at the highest salinities. Examples are methanogenesis for H 2 + CO 2 or from acetate ...

Phosphatase activity of a thermos-halotolerant cyanobacterium: Effect of some environmental factors
Cyanobacteria that grow above seawater salinity at temperatures above 45°C have rarely been studied.The present study is an attempt to decipher these unknown facts where the unique properties of phosphatase enzymes in a thermo-halotolerant Iceland clone

N-glycosylation is a post-translational modification that occurs in all three domains. In Archaea, however, N-linked glycans present a degree of compositional diversity not observed in either Eukarya or Bacteria.

. Diplopods are commonly found in edaphic habitats, but can also be present in other types of environments including supralittoral zones. In Chile, there are few records of halophilic diplopods, but none of them are from supralittoral environments ...

Lævan-forming Halophilic Bacteria [PDF]
NON-HALOPHILIC bacteria which are able to form laevan from sucrose have been described within several genera, for example, Bacillus1, Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas2, Streptococcus3, Aerobacter4, as well as Corynebacterium5. However, laevan-forming bacteria occurring among the halophiles offer special interest from the enzymological point of view and, in ...

We compared the composition of microbial communities obtained by sequencing 16S rRNA gene amplicons with taxonomy derived from metatranscriptomes from the same samples.

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.

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 ...
