The archaeal protein SepF is essential for cell division in Haloferax volcanii
In most bacteria, cell division depends on tubulin homolog FtsZ and other proteins, such as SepF. Cell division in many archaea also depends on FtsZ. Here, Nußbaum et al.

Evaluation the effects of potentially toxic co‐contaminating metal cations, including cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and Zinc (Zn), on the bioreduction of selenite by a consortium of halotolerant and halophilic bacteria and/or yeast. ABSTRACT Selenium oxyanion pollution in the environment, often originating from anthropogenic industrial activities, causes ...

Halophilic Archaea: Life with Desiccation, Radiation and Oligotrophy over Geological Times [PDF]
Halophilic archaebacteria (Haloarchaea) can survive extreme desiccation, starvation and radiation, sometimes apparently for millions of years. Several of the strategies that are involved appear specific for Haloarchaea (for example, the formation of halomucin, survival in fluid inclusions of halite), and some are known from other prokaryotes (dwarfing ...

Bacteria are generally assumed to be monoploid (haploid). This assumption is mainly based on generalization of the results obtained with the most intensely studied model bacterium, Escherichia coli (a gamma-proteobacterium), which is monoploid during ...

Cell Surface Glycosylation Is Required for Efficient Mating of Haloferax volcanii
Halophilic archaea use a fusion-based mating system for lateral gene transfer across cells, yet the molecular mechanisms involved remain unknown. Previous work implied that cell fusion involves cell–cell recognition since fusion occurs more efficiently ...

Hidden Fungal Diversity of the Precious Mediterranean Red Coral Corallium rubrum
This study reveals diverse cultivable fungi associated with the red coral Corallium rubrum, highlighting both potentially beneficial and pathogenic species. These findings emphasize the biotechnological relevance and ecological impact of coral‐associated fungi, especially as climate change may increase disease risks.

Halophilic archaea are known to produce a diverse array of pigments for phototrophy and photoprotection. The aim of this paper was to determine the role of a Halobacterium gene encoding the predicted cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP174A1) in pigment ...

Protein sequence surveys show that nickel‐ and molybdenum/copper‐containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) are widespread in the ocean. Phylogenetic and genome context analyses reveal that marine CODHs are highly diverse in both evolutionary history and functional organisation.
