Complete genome sequence of Halorhabdus utahensis type strain (AX-2). [PDF]
Halorhabdus utahensis Wainø et al. 2000 is the type species of the genus, which is of phylogenetic interest because of its location on one of the deepest branches within the very extensive euryarchaeal family Halobacteriaceae. H.

Organic Solvent Tolerance of Halophilic Archaea [PDF]
Organic solvent tolerance was tested in type strains of type species of the sixteen genera of Halobacteriaceae, the halophilic archaea. Most of the strains were observed to grow in the presence of hexylether (log Pow=5.1), but none grew in the presence of n-octane (log Pow=4.9) except Halogeometricum borinquense JCM 10706T and Halorubrum saccharovorum ...

The immune system of halophilic archaea [PDF]
Prokaryotes have developed several strategies to defend themselves against foreign genetic elements. One of those defense mechanisms is the recently identified CRISPR/Cas system, which is used by approximately half of all bacterial and almost all archaeal organisms. The CRISPR/Cas system differs from the other defense strategies because it is adaptive,

Biotechnological potentials of halophilic microorganisms and their impact on mankind
Background Halophiles are extremophilic organisms represented by archaea, bacteria and eukaryotes that thrive in hypersaline environment. They apply different osmoadaptation strategies to survive in hostile conditions.

Net positive charge(s) on ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) have been reported to influence the assembly and folding of ribosomes. A high percentage of r-proteins from extremely halophilic archaea are known to be acidic or even negatively charged.

Haloglomus irregulare gen. nov., sp. nov., a New Halophilic Archaeon Isolated from a Marine Saltern [PDF]
A halophilic archaeal strain, designated F16-60T, was isolated from Isla Cristina marine saltern in Huelva, Spain. Cells were pleomorphic, irregular, non-motile, and Gram-stain-negative. It produced red-pigmented colonies on agar plates.

Pyruvate: A key Nutrient in Hypersaline Environments?
Some of the most commonly occurring but difficult to isolate halophilic prokaryotes, Archaea as well as Bacteria, require or prefer pyruvate as carbon and energy source.

DNA Binding in High Salt: Analysing the Salt Dependence of Replication Protein A3 from the Halophile Haloferax volcanii [PDF]
Halophilic archaea maintain intracellular salt concentrations close to saturation to survive in high-salt environments and their cellular processes have adapted to function under these conditions.
