Positioning of the Motility Machinery in Halophilic Archaea [PDF]
mBio, 2019 Bacteria and archaea exhibit tactical behavior and can move up and down chemical gradients. This tactical behavior relies on a motility structure, which is guided by a chemosensory system.

Metabolism of halophilic archaea [PDF]
Extremophiles, 2008 In spite of their common hypersaline environment, halophilic archaea are surprisingly different in their nutritional demands and metabolic pathways. The metabolic diversity of halophilic archaea was investigated at the genomic level through systematic metabolic reconstruction and comparative analysis of four completely sequenced species: Halobacterium ...

Regulated polyploidy in halophilic archaea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2006 Polyploidy is common in higher eukaryotes, especially in plants, but it is generally assumed that most prokaryotes contain a single copy of a circular chromosome and are therefore monoploid.

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications, 2021 Halophilic archaea are known to have proteolytic activity and also has the capability to reduce ammonia from the processing discards. In this study, two proteolytic strains of halophilic archaea (Halobacterium salinarum and Halococcus dombrowskii) were ...

Airborne Halophilic and Non-Halophilic Microbial Communities in an Underground Salt Mine Affected by Seasonal Environmental Fluctuations. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis study tests seasonal controls on airborne microbes in the UNESCO‐listed Bochnia Salt Mine. In summer, relative humidity exceeded the halite deliquescence threshold, coinciding with higher NaCl aerosol and greater densities of halophilic microbes; in winter, humidity stayed below deliquescence and halophilic microbes declined at least 13‐fold while

On the Response of Halophilic Archaea to Space Conditions [PDF]
Life, 2014 Microorganisms are ubiquitous and can be found in almost every habitat and ecological niche on Earth. They thrive and survive in a broad spectrum of environments and adapt to rapidly changing external conditions.

Characterization and Functional Evaluation of Carotenoids From Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2
MicrobiologyOpenHaloarcula rubripromontorii BS2, an extremely halophilic archaeon was obtained from the solar salt pans of Goa, India. It grew luxuriantly on EHM medium with 25% NaCl with a bright orange pigmentation.

Halophilic archaea as tools for bioremediation technologies. [PDF]
Appl Microbiol BiotechnolAbstract Haloarchaea 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. They are more abundantly and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.
