Complete Genome Sequence of an Extremely Halophilic Archaeon from Great Salt Lake, Halobacterium sp. GSL-19.

ABSTRACT: An extremely halophilic archaeon, Halobacterium sp. GSL-19, was isolated from the north arm of Great Salt Lake in Utah. Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing was used to establish a GC-rich 2.3-Mbp genome composed of a circular chromosome and 2 plasmids, with 2,367 predicted genes, including 1 encoding a CTAG-methylase widely distributed among Haloarchaea.

Complete genome sequence of the extremely halophilic Halanaerobium praevalens type strain (GSL).

Project description:Halanaerobium praevalens Zeikus et al. 1984 is the type species of the genus Halanaerobium, which in turn is the type genus of the family Halanaerobiaceae. The species is of interest because it is able to reduce a variety of nitro-substituted aromatic compounds at a high rate, and because of its ability to degrade organic pollutants. The strain is also of interest because it functions as a hydrolytic bacterium, fermenting complex organic matter and producing intermediary metabolites for other trophic groups such as sulfate-reducing and methanogenic bacteria. It is further reported as being involved in carbon removal in the Great Salt Lake, its source of isolation. This is the first completed genome sequence of a representative of the genus Halanaerobium and the second genome sequence from a type strain of the family Halanaerobiaceae. The 2,309,262 bp long genome with its 2,110 protein-coding and 70 RNA genes is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Surviving salt fluctuations: stress and recovery in Halobacterium salinarum, an extreme halophilic Archaeon.

Project description:Halophilic proteins subjected to below about 15% salt in vitro denature through misfolding, aggregation and/or precipitation. Halobacteria, however, have been detected in environments of fluctuating salinity such as coastal salterns and even around fresh water springs in the depths of the Dead Sea. In order to identify the underlying mechanisms of low salt survival, we explored the reactivation capacity of Halobacterium (Hbt) salinarum sub-populations after incubation in low salt media and recovery in physiological salt. Respiratory oxygen consumption was assessed in stressed cells and cell viability was estimated by Live/Dead staining and flow cytometry. In vivo neutron scattering experiments showed that the recovery of Hbt salinarum sub-populations exposed to severe low salt conditions is related to a rapid retrieval of functional molecular dynamics in the proteome. In the hypothesis that the observations on Hbt salinarum have wider relevance, they could be of key ecological significance for the dispersion of extremophiles when environmental fluctuations become severe.

Complete genome sequence of Halalkalicoccus jeotgali B3(T), an extremely halophilic archaeon.

Project description:Halalkalicoccus jeotgali B3(T), isolated from salt-fermented seafood from South Korea, is an extremely halophilic archaeon belonging to the family Halobacteriaceae. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of the type strain H. jeotgali B3(T) (3,698,650 bp, with a G+C content of 62.5%), which consists of one chromosome and six plasmids. This is the first complete genome sequence of the Halalkalicoccus species.

Complete Genome Sequence of the Extremely Halophilic Archaeon Haloarcula hispanica Strain N601.

Project description:Haloarcula hispanica has been widely used in haloarchaeal studies, particularly in the isolation of haloviruses. The genome of strain N601, a laboratory derivative of the type strain ATCC 33960, was sequenced. Several potentially significant differences from the published sequence of the type strain (CGMCC 1.2049 = ATCC 33960) were observed.

Divalent metal ion-induced folding mechanism of RNase H1 from extreme halophilic archaeon Halobacterium sp. NRC-1.

Project description:RNase H1 from Halobacterium sp. NRC-1 (Halo-RNase H1) is characterized by the abundance of acidic residues on the surface, including bi/quad-aspartate site residues. Halo-RNase H1 exists in partially folded (I) and native (N) states in low-salt and high-salt conditions respectively. Its folding is also induced by divalent metal ions. To understand this unique folding mechanism of Halo-RNase H1, the active site mutant (2A-RNase H1), the bi/quad-aspartate site mutant (6A-RNase H1), and the mutant at both sites (8A-RNase H1) were constructed. The far-UV CD spectra of these mutants suggest that 2A-RNase H1 mainly exists in the I state, 6A-RNase H1 exists both in the I and N states, and 8A-RNase H1 mainly exists in the N state in a low salt-condition. These results suggest that folding of Halo-RNase H1 is induced by binding of divalent metal ions to the bi/quad-aspartate site. To examine whether metal-induced folding is unique to Halo-RNase H1, RNase H2 from the same organism (Halo-RNase H2) was overproduced and purified. Halo-RNase H2 exists in the I and N states in low-salt and high-salt conditions respectively, as does Halo-RNase H1. However, this protein exists in the I state even in the presence of divalent metal ions. Halo-RNase H2 exhibits junction ribonuclease activity only in a high-salt condition. A tertiary model of this protein suggests that this protein does not have a quad-aspartate site. We propose that folding of Halo-RNase H1 is induced by binding of divalent metal ion to the quad-aspartate site in a low-salt condition.

Halococcus qingdaonensis sp. nov., a halophilic archaeon isolated from a crude sea-salt sample.

Project description:A Gram-negative, extremely halophilic, coccoid archaeal strain, CM5(T), was isolated from a crude sea-salt sample collected near Qingdao, China. The organism grew optimally at 35-40 degrees C and pH 6.0 in the presence of 20 % (w/v) NaCl. Its colonies were red in colour and it could use glucose as a sole carbon source for growth. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of CM5(T) was most closely related to those of Halococcus species. Its pattern of antibiotic susceptibility was similar to those of other described Halococcus species. Biochemical tests revealed no sign of H(2)S production or gelatin liquefaction. The main polar lipids of strain CM5(T) were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol methylphosphate and sulfated diglycosyl diether. No phosphatidylglycerol sulfate was present. The DNA G+C content of strain CM5(T) was 61.2 mol% and it gave DNA-DNA reassociation values of 33.7, 57.1 and 29.6 %, respectively, with Halococcus salifodinae DSM 8989(T), Halococcus dombrowskii DSM 14522(T) and Halococcus morrhuae ATCC 17082(T). Based on its morphological and chemotaxonomic properties and phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence data, we propose that CM5(T) should be classified within a novel species, Halococcus qingdaonensis sp. nov., with strain CM5(T) (=CGMCC 1.4243(T)=JCM 13587(T)) as the type strain.

Genome sequence of Halorubrum sp. strain T3, an extremely halophilic archaeon harboring a virus-like element.

Project description:Halorubrum sp. strain T3, harboring a virus-like element, was isolated from a sample collected from a solar saltern in Yunnan, China. Several strains of Halorubrum pleomorphic viruses were reported in this genus recently; however, the virus-host interaction in haloarchaea remains unclear. To explore this issue, here we present the genome sequence of Halorubrum sp. strain T3 (3,168,011 bp, 68.48% G+C content).
