Halotolerant Ability and α-Amylase Activity of Some Saltwater Fungal Isolates [PDF]

, 2013
Four halotolerant fungal isolates originating from the saltwater Lake Urmia in Iran were selected during a screening program for salt resistance and α-amylase activity. The isolates were identified based on sequencing the ITS region and a part of the β-

The structure of a PII signaling protein from a halophilic archaeon reveals novel traits and high-salt adaptations [PDF]

, 2014
To obtain insights into archaeal nitrogen signaling and haloadaptation of the nitrogen/carbon/energy-signaling protein PII, we determined crystal structures of recombinantly produced GlnK2 from the extreme halophilic archaeon Haloferax mediterranei ...

Cloning and Molecular Characterization of an Alpha-Glucosidase (MalH) from the Halophilic Archaeon Haloquadratum walsbyi

Life, 2017
We report the heterologous expression and molecular characterization of the first extremely halophilic alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) from the archaeon Haloquadratum walsbyi. A 2349 bp region (Hqrw_2071) from the Hqr.

EVALUATION OF ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE PROFILES OF HALOBACTERIA ISOLATED FROM THE FOOD CHAIN [PDF]

, 2017
L’insorgenza e la diffusione dell’antibiotico resistenza sta diventando un problema a livello mondiale. Molti sono gli ambienti in cui può avvenire tale diffusione, ma una delle principali vie di trasmissione passa attraverso la catena alimentare ...

Soil microbial communities in restored and unrestored coastal dune ecosystems in California [PDF]

, 2020
Most restoration projects involving invasive plant eradication tend to focus on plant removal with little consideration given to how these invasives change soil microbial communities.

Desiccation- and Saline-Tolerant Bacteria and Archaea in Kalahari Pan Sediments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
More than 41% of the Earth’s land area is covered by permanent or seasonally arid dryland ecosystems. Global development and human activity have led to an increase in aridity, resulting in ecosystem degradation and desertification around the world.

The astrobiological potential of halophilic archaea

, 2016
The universe we know is a hostile place and currently we only know one planet that harbors life: Earth. Most of the extant life on Earth thrives in moderate environmental conditions, however, over the last decades extreme environments have been shown to harbor a great diversity of life.

Biodeterioration Risk Threatens the 3100 Year Old Staircase of Hallstatt (Austria): Possible Involvement of Halophilic Microorganisms.

PLoS ONE, 2016
BackgroundThe prosperity of Hallstatt (Salzkammergut region, Austria) is based on the richness of salt in the surrounding mountains and salt mining, which is documented as far back as 1500 years B.C. Substantial archaeological evidence of Bronze and Iron

Characteristics of Microbial Community Structure at the Seafloor Surface of the Nankai Trough

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019
Phylogenetic analysis of bacteria and archaea on the seafloor surface of the Nankai Trough was conducted. DNA was extracted from a total of 14 samples (2 samples from 1 methane seep area and 12 samples from 12 general seafloor areas) and analyzed ...
