Isolation and characterization of motility-defective mutants of Haloferax volcanii.
Haloferax volcanii is a motile extreme halophile, and a detailed physical map of its genome exists. An effort is underway to locate more genes and to increase the detail of this map. Flagellated motile bacteria possess a number of filaments that function as cellular propellers. Motile bacteria swim …

Production and characterisation of bioflocculant produced by bacterial isolates from Richards Bay harbour, Kwazulu Natal
… and harmless to the environment. In this study, halophile novel bacteria was isolated from Richards Bay Harbour, Kwazulu-Natal, Republic of South Africa and screened for bioflocculant producing potential using a production medium at 30 oC for 72 hours with a shaking speed of 160 rpm. Kaolin clay …

Investigating the Biological Role and Binding Modes of Histone-Like Proteins of Halophilic Archaea
… that the sole histone gene of another model halophile: hstA of Haloferax volcanii, could be deleted, and that knockout cells remained viable. The genome-wide binding of both halophilic histones was studied, and compared with publicly available data regarding the binding patterns from …

Ecology of Culturable Organisms at Rozel Point, Great Salt Lake, Utah
The study of organisms from extreme environments is an emerging field of research with applications to multiple scientific areas. One of these extreme environments is Great Salt Lake (GSL), whose microbiology has yet to be extensively studied. This dynamic and unique environment offers an excellent …

CHARACTERIZATION OF HALOPHILIC MICROORGANISMS AND SULFATE SALTS FROM THE HYPERSALINE LAKES OF BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA; AN ASTROBIOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
Based on geological evidence at Meridian! Planum, the loss of liquid water on Mars would have produced magnesium sulfate rich brines. The Basque Lakes of British Columbia, Canada, are an excellent terrestrial analogue for this site, as they possess highly concentrated brines fed by ground water …
