An archaeal diether lipid possessing a tri-antenna of α-D-mannopyranoside linked via an oligoethylene spacer to a (2S)-2-(phytanyloxy)-3-(hexadecyloxy)propanoic acid backbone (TriMan-Diether) was designed and synthesized. This new mannosylated lipid inserted in liposomes would show both DC-targeting and adjuvant properties thanks to the TriMan structure and the diether tail part, respectively.

Article Synopsis
  • 'Haloarcula aidinensis' was first described by a Chinese scientist and has recently been reclassified based on advanced genomic analyses, linking it to 'Haloarcula amylolytica'.
  • Three new halophilic archaeal strains (CK38, DT43, and SYNS111) were isolated from saline environments in China and classified as new species of Haloarcula.
  • The strains have distinct phenotypic traits and specific phospholipid profiles, leading to the proposal of new species names: Haloarcula sediminis, Haloarcula brevis, and Haloarcula regularis.

Eight colonies of live microbes were isolated from an extensively surface-sterilized halite sample which had been retrieved from a depth of 2000 m from a salt mine in the Qianjiang Depression, Hubei Province, PR China. The eight colonies, obtained after 4 weeks of incubation, were named JI20-1-JI20-8 and JI20-1 was selected as the type strain. The strains have been previously described, including a genomic analysis based on the complete genome for strain JI20-1 and draft genomes for the other strains.

Article Synopsis
  • Two halophilic archaea strains, TS33 and KZCA124, were isolated from distinct salt lakes in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and are identified as low abundant original inhabitants of those environments.
  • Both strains can grow under extreme conditions, thriving at temperatures between 20-60 °C and varying salinity (0.9-4.8 M NaCl), with respective optimal growth conditions indicated.
  • Genetic analyses suggest that TS33 and KZCA124 are closely related yet distinct enough to potentially classify them as a new species in a new genus within the Natrialbaceae family, as indicated by their unique lipid composition and phenotypic traits.

sp. nov. and sp. nov., halophilic archaea isolated from saline soil and an inland solar saltern.

Int J Syst Evol Microbiol

January 2024

School of Food and Biological Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, PR China.

Article Synopsis
  • Two new halophilic archaeal strains, GSLN9 and XZYJT29, were discovered in saline soil from western China, showing significant genetic differences from known species.
  • Genetic analysis revealed their close relations to specific genera, with GSLN9 and XZYJT29 displaying distinct average nucleotide identity and amino acid values compared to their relatives, indicating they do not belong to previously identified species.
  • Phenotypic characterizations and polar lipid compositions further confirmed that GSLN9 and XZYJT29 are unique, leading to the proposal of them as new species, designated as sp. nov. for their respective genera.

Article Synopsis
  • Two new strains of halophilic archaea, XZGYJ-43 and ZJ1, were isolated from solar salterns in Tibet and Guangdong, China, respectively.
  • Genetic analysis showed that XZGYJ-43 is quite distinct from related strains, whereas ZJ1 closely clusters with its existing genus.
  • Both strains display unique phenotypic traits and lipid compositions, leading to the proposal of XZGYJ-43 as a new species in a new genus and ZJ1 as a new species in its current genus.
