Bioenergetic Aspects of Halophilism [PDF]
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 1999 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 ...

S‐Adenosylmethionine (SAM) hydrolases counter increased SAM epimerisation in thermophilic archaea
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.S‐Adenosyl‐l‐methionine (SAM) is a vital enzyme cofactor. Epimerisation at the sulfonium centre of biologically active (SS,SCα)‐SAM is driven by heat, yielding biologically inactive (RS,SCα)‐SAM. Here, two novel archaeal SAM hydrolases from the thermophilic Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and the halophilic Haloferax volcanii are shown to cleave (RS,SCα)‐SAM.

Structural basis for the aminoacid composition of proteins from halophilic archea. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2009 Proteins from halophilic organisms, which live in extreme saline conditions, have evolved to remain folded at very high ionic strengths. The surfaces of halophilic proteins show a biased amino acid composition with a high prevalence of aspartic and ...

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Vibrio harveyi is an important bacterial pathogen in marine aquaculture, responsible for outbreaks affecting a wide range of fish species. Early detection of potentially virulent isolates in fish and environmental samples is essential for effective disease prevention and management, particularly under field conditions where the pathogen may be

Desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the green lineage and beyond
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Ancient origin and recurrent evolution of desiccation tolerance in the green lineage. Summary Water is essential for life on Earth, yet some plants can survive the near‐complete loss of cellular water, a trait known as desiccation tolerance. Although rare in vegetative tissues of vascular plants, desiccation tolerance is scattered across the plant ...

Disentangling a metabolic cross-feeding in a halophilic archaea-bacteria consortium
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Microbial syntrophy, a cooperative metabolic interaction among prokaryotes, serves a critical role in shaping communities, due to the auxotrophic nature of many microorganisms.

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.Microwave‐conditioned olive pomace was fractionated with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) spanning acidic, neutral, alkaline, and chemo‐enzymatic regimes. The alkaline DES provided the best balance between delignification and carbohydrate preservation, yielding a fermentable glucose/xylose stream suitable for Haloferax mediterranei fermentation and poly(3‐
