Most bioremediation research has focused on processes performed by the domain Bacteria; however, Archaea are known to play important roles in many situations. In extreme conditions, such as halophilic or acidophilic environments, Archaea are well suited for bioremediation.
The data herein represented confirm strain Arc-HrT as a unique species and consequently we propose its classification as representative of a novel species belonging to the genus Haloferax, as.
Strain M6(T) was able to reduce sulfur to sulfide anaerobically. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain M6(T) belongs to the family Halobacteriaceae, genus Haloferax; it showed 96.7-98.0 % similarity to other members of the genus with validly published names and 89 % similarity to Halogeometricum borinquense, its closest relative outside the genus Haloferax.

The PAM sequences for the Haloferax I-B system have been identified in vivo by systematically changing bases within the PAM and testing their effect in a plasmid based invader system (20,50,51). Six PAM sequences (TTC, ACT, TAA, TAT, TAG, CAC) were shown to be effective in the Haloferax CRISPR-Cas system, the highest number of PAM sequences for any organism determined so far ( 17 ).

The extremely halophilic, aerobic members of Archaea are classified within the family Halobacteriaceae, order Halobacteriales in Class III. Halobacteria of the phylum Euryarchaeota (International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes, Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Halobacteriaceae).
Three pigmented strains of halophilic archaea (RS75, RS77, RS79) were isolated from the monoliths of mottled sylvinite from the Verkhnekamsk salt deposit (Solikamsk, Russia). The cells were.
Archaebacteria are known to survive in conditions where life can’t be even imagined. They are the extreme survivors of the Universe. Take a look at the examples of archaebacteria in this article. Archaebacteria are single-celled organisms that can survive in extreme conditions. They are believed to be the oldest form of organisms, being about.
However, it should be remembered that there are also halophilic Archaea which do not seem to harbor any GH-J clan enzymes, even within the same genus (i.e. Haloferax gibbonsii and Haloferax lucentense; while the first one has GH68- and GH32- like proteins, the latter does not). The number of species that harbor GH-J clan enzymes make up 21%, 31% and 16% of all known species of Halobacteriales.
Discovery. Haloferax larsenii was isolated from a solar saltern in the Zhoushan archipelago, Zhejiang Province, China.The researchers who discovered this species isolated three strains of H. larsenii.When this species was discovered, the genus Haloferax comprised Haloferax volcanii, H. mediterranei, H. denitrificans, H. gibbonsii, H. alexandrinus, H. lucentense, and H. sulfurifontis.

Haloarchaea Explained. Haloarchaea (halophilic archaea, halophilic archaebacteria, halobacteria) are a class of the Euryarchaeota, found in water saturated or nearly saturated with salt.Halobacteria are now recognized as archaea, rather than bacteria and are one of the largest groups. The name 'halobacteria' was assigned to this group of organisms before the existence of the domain Archaea was.
