HaloDom: a new database of halophiles across all life domains

open access: yesJournal of Biological Research - Thessaloniki, 2018
Background Halophilic organisms may thrive in or tolerate high salt concentrations. They have been studied for decades and a considerable number of papers reporting new halophilic species are being published every year.

Functional genomic and advanced genetic studies reveal novel insights into the metabolism, regulation, and biology of Haloferax volcanii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The genome sequence of Haloferax volcanii is available and several comparative genomic in silico studies were performed that yielded novel insight for example into protein export, RNA modifications, small non-coding RNAs, and ubiquitin-like Small ...

Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes reveals a unique microbial community in three anaerobic sludge digesters of Dubai.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Understanding the microbial communities in anaerobic digesters, especially bacteria and archaea, is key to its better operation and regulation. Microbial communities in the anaerobic digesters of the Gulf region where climatic conditions and other ...

Heterogeneity of small plasmids from halophilic archaea [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1993
Small multicopy plasmids in three strains of halophilic archaea, SB3, GRB, and GN101, were found to be present in a cell as a population of related but not identical sequences. Two types of heterogeneity were observed: macroheterogeneity, represented by two major plasmid sequence versions homologous to each other by 80%, and microheterogeneity, in ...

Probing Saltern Brines with an Oxygen Electrode: What Can We Learn about the Community Metabolism in Hypersaline Systems?

open access: yesLife, 2016
We have explored the use of optical oxygen electrodes to study oxygenic photosynthesis and heterotrophic activities in crystallizer brines of the salterns in Eilat, Israel.

Beyond Archaea: The Table Salt Bacteriome

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Commercial table salt is a condiment with food preservative properties by decreasing water activity and increasing osmotic pressure. Salt is also a source of halophilic bacteria and archaea.

Systems Biology of Halophilic Archaea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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.

Identification of essential and non-essential single-stranded DNA-binding proteins in a model archaeal organism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This work is supported by the The Scottish Universities Life Sciences Alliance (SULSA)Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) play vital roles in all aspects of DNA metabolism in all three domains of life and are characterized by the presence of one ...

PLASMIDS OF ARCHAEA AS POSSIBLE ANCESTORS OF DNA-CONTAINING VIRUSES

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2018
Тhе kingdom Archaea, as well as Bacteria, belongs to the overkingdom Prokaryota. Halophilic archaea (Halorubrum lacusprofundi) isolated from Antarctic saline lakes contain plasmids (pR1SE) that code proteins taking part in the formation of membranes of ...

On the origin of prokaryotic "species": the taxonomy of halophilic Archaea [PDF]

open access: yesSaline Systems, 2008
The consistent use of the taxonomic system of binomial nomenclature (genus and species) was first popularized by Linnaeus nearly three-hundred years ago to classify mainly plants and animals. His main goal was to give labels that would ensure that biologists could agree on which organism was under investigation.
