Genetic variability in Halobacterium halobium.
Halobacterium halobium exhibits an extraordinary degree of spontaneous variability. Mutants which are defective in the formation of gas vacuoles (vac) arise at a frequency of 10(-2). Other easily detectable phenotypes, like the synthesis of bacterioruberin (Rub) or the synthesis of retinal (Ret) and bacterio-opsin (Ops), the two components which form the purple membrane (Pum) of H. halobium, ar...
متن کاملBiological properties of carotenoids extracted from Halobacterium halobium isolated from a Tunisian solar saltern
BACKGROUND Bioactive molecules have received increasing attention due to their nutraceutical attributes and anticancer, antioxidant, antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing properties. This study aimed to investigate the biological properties of carotenoids extracted from Archaea. METHODS Halophilic Archaea strains were isolated from the brine of a local crystallizer pond (TS7) of a solar sa...
متن کاملArginine deiminase from Halobacterium salinarium. Purification and properties.
Arginine deiminase from the extreme halophilic archaebacterium Halobacterium salinarium was purified to homogeneity in a four-step procedure with a 310-fold enrichment. The enzyme consists of two identical subunits of 55 kDa; its native molecular mass is 105 kDa. The pI of 4.7 indicates that acidic nature of the protein, which is evidenced by its amino acid composition, which shows an excess of...
متن کاملIntegration of photosensory signals in Halobacterium halobium.
Stimulation of Halobacterium halobium through its sensory photosystems, PS 370 and PS 565, leads either to a prolonged or to a shortened interval between two reversals of the swimming direction of the cell, the attractant or repellent response. Stimuli are integrated to yield the same response regardless through which photosystem they are given. Simultaneously elicited attractant and repellent ...
متن کاملBacterio-opsin mutants of Halobacterium halobium.
The bacterio-opsin (bop) gene of Halobacterium halobium R1 has been cloned with about 40 kilobases of flanking genomic sequence. The 40-kilobase segment is derived from the (G+C)-rich fraction of the chromosome and is not homologous to the major (pHH1) or minor endogenous covalently closed circular DNA species of H. halobium. A 5.1-kilobase Pst I fragment containing the bop gene was subcloned i...
