Uptake of environmental halophilic archaea by human dendritic cells [PDF]
Scientific ReportsHalophilic archaea are a group distinct from Bacteria and Eukarya, which belong to extremophiles living in highly saline environments. However, they can also exist in the human microbiome. Their impact on the human immune system is poorly known.

Halophilic archaea in the human intestinal mucosa
Environmental Microbiology, 2010 Summary The human gastrointestinal tract microbiota, despite its key roles in health and disease, remains a diverse, variable and poorly understood entity. Current surveys reveal a multitude of undefined bacterial taxa and a low diversity of methanogenic archaea. In an analysis of the microbiota in colonic mucosal

Computational Genome and Pathway Analysis of Halophilic Archaea [PDF]
, 2005 Halophilic archaea inhabit hypersaline environments and share common physiological features such as acidic protein machineries in order to adapt to high internal salt concentrations as well as electron transport chains for oxidative respiration. Surprisingly, nutritional demands were found to differ considerably amongst haloarchaeal species, though ...

The astrobiological potential of halophilic archaea [PDF]
, 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.
