Ectoine degradation pathway in halotolerant methylotrophs

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2020
Microorganisms living in saline environments are forced to regulate turgor via the synthesis of organic osmoprotective compounds. Microbial adaptation to fluctuations in external salinity includes degradation of compatible solutes. Here we have examined the biochemical pathway of degradation of the cyclic imino acid ectoine, the major osmoprotector in ...

Three-dimensional structure of a halotolerant algal carbonic anhydrase predicts halotolerance of a mammalian homolog [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005
Protein molecular adaptation to drastically shifting salinities was studied in dCA II, an α-type carbonic anhydrase (EC 4.2.1.1) from the exceptionally salt-tolerant unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina . The salt-inducible, extracellular dCA II is highly salt-tolerant and thus differs from its mesophilic ...

The enrichment of an alkaliphilic biofilm consortia capable of the anaerobic degradation of isosaccharinic acid from cellulosic materials incubated within an anthropogenic, hyperalkaline environment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Anthropogenic hyper-alkaline sites provide an environment that is analogous to proposed cementitious geological disposal facilities (GDF) for radioactive waste.

Metagenomic Profiling of Soil Microbes to Mine Salt Stress Tolerance Genes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Osmotolerance is one of the critical factors for successful survival and colonization of microbes in saline environments. Nonetheless, information about these osmotolerance mechanisms is still inadequate. Exploration of the saline soil microbiome for its

Effects of Nutrient Content and Nitrogen to Phosphorous Ratio on the Growth, Nutrient Removal and Desalination Properties of the Green Alga Coelastrum morus on a Laboratory Scale

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
In wastewater, nutrient concentrations and salinity vary substantially, however, the optimal N:P ratio for the treatment using microalgae is not well described.

Application of Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria from Cape Verde to Increase Maize Tolerance to Salinity

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Salinity constitutes a major abiotic factor that negatively affects crop productivity. Inoculation with plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) is proven to increase plant tolerance to abiotic stresses and enhance plant growth, development and ...

Global transcriptional and circadian regulation in a halotolerant cyanobacterium Halothece sp. PCC7418

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Substantial evidence has been accumulated about the molecular basis underlying halotolerance; however, insights into the regulatory networks for relevant genes and mechanisms of their interplay remain elusive.

Genome Sequence of Staphylococcus saprophyticus DPC5671, a Strain Isolated from Cheddar Cheese [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
peer-reviewedThe draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus saprophyticus DPC5671, isolated from cheddar cheese, was determined. S. saprophyticus is a common Gram-positive bacterium detected on the surface of smear-ripened cheese and other fermented ...
