Halophilic archaea as tools for bioremediation technologies [PDF]
Appl Microbiol BiotechnolHaloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to be alive, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons.

Cellular differentiation into hyphae and spores in halophilic archaea [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 Several groups of bacteria have complex life cycles involving cellular differentiation and multicellular structures. For example, actinobacteria of the genus Streptomyces form multicellular vegetative hyphae, aerial hyphae, and spores.

Rhizosphere-dwelling halophilic archaea: a potential candidate for alleviating salinity-associated stress in agriculture [PDF]
Front Microbiol, 2023 Salinity is a serious environmental factor that impedes crop growth and drastically reduces yield. This study aimed to investigate the potential of halophilic archaea isolated from the Rann of Kutch to alleviate the negative impact of salinity on crop ...

Up-Regulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 Antioxidant Pathway in Macrophages by an Extract from a New Halophilic Archaea Isolated in Odiel Saltworks [PDF]
Antioxidants (Basel), 2023 The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the progression of many inflammatory diseases. The search for antioxidants with the ability for scavenging free radicals from the body cells that reduce oxidative damage is ...

The Osmoprotectant Switch of Potassium to Compatible Solutes in an Extremely Halophilic Archaea Halorubrum kocurii 2020YC7 [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2022 The main osmoadaptive mechanisms of extremely halophilic archaea include the “salt-in” strategy and the “compatible solutes” strategy. Here we report the osmoadaptive mechanism of an extremely halophilic archaea H.

A non-carboxylating pentose bisphosphate pathway in halophilic archaea [PDF]
Commun Biol, 2022 Bacteria and Eucarya utilize the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway to direct the ribose moieties of nucleosides to central carbon metabolism. Many archaea do not possess this pathway, and instead, Thermococcales utilize a pentose bisphosphate ...

Understanding the tolerance of halophilic archaea to stress landscapes [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepHaloarchaea, known for their resilience to environmental fluctuations, require a minimum salt concentration of 10% (w/v) for growth and can survive up to 35% (w/v) salinity. In biotechnology, these halophiles have diverse industrial applications.
