Early evolution of purple retinal pigments on Earth and implications for exoplanet biosignatures

Shiladitya DasSarma et al.

Summary: The proposal discusses the early emergence of retinal-based phototrophy in the evolution of life on Earth and its impact on photosynthesis and potential implications for extraterrestrial life. It highlights how the onset of oxygenic photosynthesis altered the Earth's atmosphere and suggests that simpler retinal-based light-harvesting systems may have dominated before the development of photosynthesis. Additionally, it explores the concept of using retinal photopigments as remote biosignatures for exoplanet research.

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

Priya DasSarma et al.

Summary: Halobacterium sp. GSL-19, an extremely halophilic archaeon, was isolated from the north arm of Great Salt Lake in Utah. Its GC-rich 2.3-Mbp genome was determined using single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, consisting of a circular chromosome and 2 plasmids, with 2,367 predicted genes, including one encoding a CTAG-methylase widely distributed among Haloarchaea.

Genome Sequence of Halobacterium sp. Strain BOL4-2, Isolated and Cultured from Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia

Priya DasSarma et al.

Summary: Halobacterium sp. strain BOL4-2 was isolated from the Andean salt flat, Salar de Uyuni, in Bolivia, with a 2.4-Mbp genome consisting of a 2.0-Mbp chromosome and four plasmids. Its isolation from an environment experiencing multiple extremes makes the strain interesting for astrobiology.

Genome Sequence and Methylation Pattern of Haloterrigena salifodinae BOL5-1, an Extremely Halophilic Archaeon from a Bolivian Salt Mine

Priya DasSarma et al.

Summary: This study sequenced the halophilic archaeon Haloterrigena salifodinae BOL5-1 isolated from a Bolivian salt mine using single-molecule real-time sequencing. The GC-rich genome was 5.1 Mbp, consisting of a 4.2-Mbp chromosome and 5 plasmids of varying sizes. Genome annotation was integrated into HaloWeb, and methylation patterns were incorporated into REBASE.
