Virion Architecture Unifies Globally Distributed Pleolipoviruses Infecting Halophilic Archaea [PDF]
ABSTRACT Our understanding of the third domain of life, Archaea , has greatly increased since its establishment some 20 years ago. The increasing information on archaea has also brought their viruses into the limelight.

Characterization and Functional Evaluation of Carotenoids From Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2
Fractionation and comprehensive characterization of C50 carotenoids from Haloarcula rubripromontorii BS2, identified all‐trans bacterioruberin as the predominant isomer. The haloarchaeal carotenoid exhibited strong antioxidant activity, photostability in oil and was biocompatible with human keratinocytes, highlighting their potential as sustainable ...

This work presents the physiological exploration of the halo‐alkaliphilic, carboxydotrophic acetogen bacterium MD4. In contrast to well‐characterised neutrophilic and slightly acidophilic acetogenic carboxydotrophs, this work shows an important role for formate production, instead of ethanol, as a redox exhaust mechanism in alkaline conditions ...

Systems Biology of Halophilic Archaea [PDF]
Systems biology is spread over all branches of life science and attracts biologists, mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists, and engineers equally. Full of promises and visions it often signalizes that the in silico eucaryotic cell is close to realization and experimental work will be needed in the future only for confirmation.

Extreme Salinity Change Governs Microbial Community Assembly and Interactions
Along the Coorong Lagoon's extreme salinity gradient, hypersalinity deterministically enriches halophilic specialists and reorganises sediment microbial networks. Network complexity peaks at salinity extremes, revealing pivotal ecological trade‐offs that will steer nutrient cycling and lagoon resilience as coastal wetland salinisation accelerates ...

The influence of microbial communities on the corrosion of carbon steel in seawater from the Brazilian Atlantic Coast was investigated. Seawater location, conditions, and storage time strongly impact species composition. Electrochemical and morphological analyses revealed differences in the deterioration of carbon steel depending on the microbial ...

Abstract The Strathpeffer–Struie Lower Devonian LORS (Lower Old Red Sandstone) deposits of the Northern Highlands of Scotland contain the decidedly unusual ‘foetid beds’. These are interpreted as being deposited in a highly saline sulphate lake and associated playa mudflat, which developed in an intermontane basin in the Caledonian Mountains of ...

Extreme halophilic archaea derive from two distinct methanogen Class II lineages.
Phylogenetic analyses of conserved core genes have disentangled most of the ancient relationships in Archaea. However, some groups remain debated, like the DPANN, a deep-branching super-phylum composed of nanosized archaea with reduced genomes.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Desert pavements: A hidden key to Earth surface processes
Desert pavements are a global phenomenon in arid environments, representing one of the most extensive geomorphological and geoecological features on Earth. To a large extent, they determine the interplay of key processes governing current and past landscape dynamics.
