Molecular Mechanisms of Adaptation of the Moderately Halophilic Bacterium Halobacillis halophilus to Its Environment
The capability of osmoadaptation is a prerequisite of organisms that live in an environment with changing salinities. Halobacillus halophilus is a moderately halophilic bacterium that grows between 0.4 and 3 M NaCl by accumulating both chloride and compatible solutes as osmolytes. Chloride is absolutely essential for growth and, moreover, was shown to modulate gene expression and activity of en...
متن کاملSalt-inducible multidrug efflux pump protein in the moderately halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter sp.
It has been known that halophilic bacteria often show natural resistance to antibiotics, dyes, and toxic metal ions, but the mechanism and regulation of this resistance have remained unexplained. We have addressed this question by identifying the gene responsible for multidrug resistance. A spontaneous ofloxacin-resistant mutant derived from the moderately halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter ...
متن کاملA salt-inhibited cytochrome c reductase obtained from the moderately halophilic bacterium, Micrococcus halodenitrificans.
A membrane-bound cytochrome c reductase from Micrococcus halodenitrificans was inhibited by NaCl at concentrations as low as 0.05 m. The inhibition was competitive with respect to cytochrome c and noncompetitive with respect to reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Thus the effect of NaCl was to increase the apparent K(m) of the enzyme for cytochrome c and not to inhibit the intrinsic acti...
متن کاملLentibacillus salis sp. nov., a moderately halophilic bacterium isolated from a salt lake.
A Gram-positive, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain BH113T, was isolated from a salt lake located in Xinjiang Province, China. Cells of the strain were aerobic, spore-forming, motile rods with flagella. The organism grew optimally at 37 degrees C and pH 8.0 in the presence of 10 % (w/v) NaCl. A phylogenetic analysis based on comparisons of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the...
متن کاملAdaptation to high salt concentrations in halotolerant/halophilic fungi: a molecular perspective
Molecular studies of salt tolerance of eukaryotic microorganisms have until recently been limited to the baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a few other moderately halotolerant yeast. Discovery of the extremely halotolerant and adaptable fungus Hortaea werneckii and the obligate halophile Wallemia ichthyophaga introduced two new model organisms into studies on the mechanisms of salt tole...
