Whole genome duplication and enrichment of metal cation transporters revealed by de novo genome sequencing of extremely halotolerant black yeast Hortaea werneckii.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Hortaea werneckii, ascomycetous yeast from the order Capnodiales, shows an exceptional adaptability to osmotically stressful conditions. To investigate this unusual phenotype we obtained a draft genomic sequence of a H.

Idiomarina halophila sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern sediment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2015
A Gram-stain-negative, halophilic bacterium, designated strain BH195T, was isolated from the sediment of the solar saltern pond located in Gomso, Republic of Korea. Strain BH195T was a strictly aerobic, non-motile rod, which grew at pH 3.5–10.5 (optimum, pH 7.5), at 4–55 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and at salinities of 0.5–11 % (w/v) NaCl [optimum, 2–3 % (w/v)

Distinctive Archaeal Composition of an Artisanal Crystallizer Pond and Functional Insights Into Salt-Saturated Hypersaline Environment Adaptation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Hypersaline environments represent some of the most challenging settings for life on Earth. Extremely halophilic microorganisms have been selected to colonize and thrive in these extreme environments by virtue of a broad spectrum of adaptations to ...

Roseovarius salinarum sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2018
A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile and halophilic bacterium, designated N53T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Wendeng, China. Cells of strain N53T were 0.3-0.4 µm wide and 2.0-5.5 µm long, catalase-positive and oxidase-positive.

Exploring biosurfactant from Halobacterium jilantaiense as drug against HIV and zika virus: fabrication, characterization, cytosafety property, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Biosurfactants are surface-active molecules with unique qualities and various uses. Many microorganisms produce secondary metabolites with surface-active characteristics that serve various antiviral functions.

Elucidating metabolic pathways through genomic analysis in highly heavy metal-resistant Halobacterium salinarum strains

open access: yesHeliyon
The annotated and predicted genomes of five archaeal strains (AS1, AS2, AS8, AS11 and AS19), isolated from Sfax solar saltern sediments (Tunisia) and affiliated with Halobacterium salinarum, were performed by RAST webserver (Rapid Annotation using ...

Towards estimating the number of strains that make up a natural bacterial population

open access: yesNature Communications
What a strain is and how many strains make up a natural bacterial population remain elusive concepts despite their apparent importance for assessing the role of intra-population diversity in disease emergence or response to environmental perturbations ...
