Journal ArticleDOI
On the revised structure of the major phospholipid of Halobacterium salinarium
TL;DR: The methylated structure (PGP-Me), rather than PGP itself, is also the major phospholipid in species of other genera of extreme halophiles examined so far, such as, Haloferax, Haloarcula, Halococcus, Natronobacterium and Natronococcus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosynthetic studies of the polar lipids of Halobacterium cutirubrum. Formation of isoprenyl ether intermediates
Natalia Moldoveanu,Morris Kates +1 more
TL;DR: Biosynthetic studies on the complex polar lipids of the extreme halophile, Halobacterium cutirubrum, suggest that the biosynthetic pathways for the major diphytanylglycerol ether phospho- and glycolipids involve formation of the respective isoprenyl intermediates that are reduced in a stepwise fashion to the fully saturated diphyTanylglycersol ether phosphate groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipids of extremely halophilic archaeobacteria from saline environments in India: A novel glycolipid in Natronobacterium strains
TL;DR: Several strains of extremely halophilic archaeobacteria, including Halobacterium, Haloferax and Natronobacteria species, were isolated from salt locales in India and found to contain small amounts of a novel glycolipid identified as glucopyranosyl-1-->6-glucopyranoyl- 1-->1-glycerol diether (DGD-4).
Journal ArticleDOI
Halococcus saccharolyticus sp. nov., a New Species of Extremely Halophilic Non-alkaliphilic Cocci
Carlos G. Montero,Antonio Ventosa,Francisco Rodriguez-Valera,Morris Kates,Natalia Moldoveanu,F. Ruiz-Berraquero +5 more
TL;DR: A representative of extremely halophilic non-alkaliphilic archaebacterial cocci, recently described by Montero et al., (1988), was studied in detail and a new species Halococcus saccharolyticus sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polar lipids of non-alkaliphilic halococci
TL;DR: A pattern of lipids appears to be characteristic of the strains of Halococcus from salterns in Spain, but studies of a larger number and variety of Haloccus are necessary to establish this conclusion with certainty.
