This article is an open access publication Abstract By applying the culturomics concept and using culture conditions containing a high salt concentration, we herein isolated the frst known halophilic archaeon colonizing the human gut. Here we described its phenotypic and biochemical characteriza- tion as well as its genome annotation. Strain Arc-HrT (= CSUR P0974 = CECT 9307) was mesophile and grew optimally at 37 °C and pH 7. Strain Arc-HrT was also extremely halophilic with an optimal growth observed at 15% NaCl. It showed gram-negative cocci, was strictly aerobic, non-motile and non-spore-forming, and exhibited catalase and oxidase activities. The 4,015,175 bp long genome exhibits a G + C% content of 65.36% and contains 3911 protein-coding and 64 predicted RNA genes. PCR-amplifed 16S rRNA gene of strain Arc-HrT yielded a 99.2% sequence similarity with Haloferax prahovense, the phylogenetically closest validly published species in the Haloferax genus. The DDH was of 50.70 ± 5.2% with H. prahovense, 53.70 ± 2.69% with H. volcanii, 50.90 ± 2.64% with H. alexandrinus, 52.90 ± 2.67% with H.

These shifts are usually related to stress conditions such as low/high solar radiation, extreme temperatures, oxidative stress, pH variations, changes in salinity, or a high concentration of heavy metals. In addition, climate change is resulting in these stress conditions becoming more significant due to the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. The most relevant damaging effect of these stressors is protein denaturation. To cope with this effect, organisms have developed different mechanisms, wherein the stress genes play an important role in deciding which of them survive. Each organism has different responses that involve the activation of many genes and molecules as well as downregulation of other genes and pathways. Focused on salinity stress, the archaeal domain encompasses the most significant extremophiles living in high-salinity environments. To have the capacity to withstand this high salinity without losing protein structure and function, the microorganisms have distinct adaptations.

  • Variations in the Two Last Steps of the Purine Biosynthetic Pathway in Prokaryotes

Accepted: February 16, 2019 Abstract The last two steps of the purine biosynthetic pathway may be catalyzed by different enzymes in prokaryotes. The genes that encode these enzymes include homologs of purH, purP, purO and those encoding the AICARFT and IMPCH domains of PurH, here named purV and purJ, respectively. In Bacteria, these reactions are mainly catalyzed by the domains AICARFT and IMPCH of PurH. In Archaea, these reactions may be carried out by PurH and also by PurP and PurO, both considered signatures of this domain and analogous to the AICARFT and IMPCH domains of PurH, respectively. These genes were searched for in 1,403 completely sequenced prokaryotic genomes publicly available. Our analyses revealed taxonomic patterns for the distribution of these genes and anticorrelations in their occurrence. The analyses of bacterial genomes revealed the existence of genes coding for PurV, PurJ, and PurO, which may no longer be considered signatures of the domain Archaea. Although highly divergent, the PurOs of Archaea and Bacteria show a high level of conservation in the amino acids of the active sites of the protein, allowing us to infer that these enzymes are analogs.

Department of Molecular, Cellular, Developmental Biology, Department of Psychology and Neuroscience, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, USA Defense Date: April 3rd, 2020 Abstract The dominant bacteria and archaea on table salts from around the world were identified and how these halophilic families varied as a function of salt chemical makeup was investigated. Through this study, the dominant taxa found on table salts were reported to be: Haloferacaceae, Pseudomonadaceae, Halomicrobiaceae, Halobacteriaceae, Nanohaloarchaeaceae, Rhodothermaceae, Burkholderiaceae, and Rhizobiaceae Marinobacteraceae, Alteromonadaceae, Rhodobacteraceae, Micrococcaceae, Moracellaceae, Staphylococcaceae, Oligoflexaceae, Halomonadaceae, and Flavobacteriaceae. The relative abundance of these microorganisms across samples was variable and related to the chemical composition of the table salts,

Abstract: Prokaryotic communities and physico-chemical characteristics of 30 brine samples from the thalassohaline Tuz Lake (Salt Lake), Deep Zone, Kayacik, Kaldirim, and Yavsan salterns (Turkey) were analyzed using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and standard methods, respectively. Archaea (98.41% of reads) was found to dominate in these habitats in contrast to the domain Bacteria (1.38% of reads). Representatives of the phylum Euryarchaeota were detected as the most predominant, while 59.48% Citation: Akpolat, C.; Fernández, and 1.32% of reads, respectively, were assigned to 18 archaeal genera, 19 bacterial genera, 10 archaeal A.B.; Caglayan, P.; Calli, B.; Birbir, M.; genera, and one bacterial genus that were determined to be present, with more than 1% sequences in Ventosa, A.
