Halophiles and Their Vast Potential in Biofuel Production
Global warming and the limitations of using fossil fuels are a main concern of all societies, and thus, the development of alternative fuel sources is crucial to improving the current global energy situation.

Abstract Salinization threatens ecosystem stability by altering microbial diversity and function, yet how salinity influences biodiversity‐ecosystem functioning (BEF) relationships remains unclear. In this study, we constructed artificial microbial communities (5–40 strains) with varying salt tolerance and phylogeny, culturing them across a salinity ...

European salt marshes diversity and functioning: the case study of the Mont Saint-Michel bay, France [PDF]
The macrotidal Mont Saint-Michel bay has been studied intensively since 1990. The objectives of this study, supported by the European Union, was to understand various processes underlying the functioning of this hydrosystem with a special focus on ...

Deciphering the Sodium Sensing Mechanisms in Glycophytes and Halophytes
ABSTRACT Plants, including halophytes (salt‐tolerant) and glycophytes (salt‐sensitive), have developed diverse molecular mechanisms and morphological adaptations to survive in saline environments. The cellular components and molecular processes for salinity sensing and stress tolerance have been extensively identified in glycophytes, but not so with ...

5‐Thiohistidine N‐Acetyltransferase from Proteiniphilum Saccharofermentans
Proteiniphilum saccharofermentans, a Gram‐negative facultative anaerobe, produces an N‐acetyl transferase (5THNAT) that acetylates 5‐thiohistidine using acetyl‐CoA. This reaction competes with OvoC‐mediated Nπ‐methylation of the same substrate.

Polyamines are small organic cations that are essential for cellular function in all kingdoms of life. Polyamine metabolism is regulated by enzyme-catalyzed acetylation–deacetylation cycles in a fashion similar to the epigenetic regulation of histone ...

Isolation of two strong poly (U) binding proteins from moderate halophile Halomonas eurihalina and their identification as cold shock proteins. [PDF]
Cold shock proteins (Csp) are known to be expressed in response to sudden decrease in temperature. They are thought to be involved in a number of cellular processes viz., RNA chaperone activity, translation, transcription, nucleoid condensation.

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.
