Abstract excerpt

An extremely halophilic Archaeon belonging to the order Halobacteriales was isolated from the solar salterns of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. The organism, designated strain PR5T, is rod-shaped, non-motile and requires at least 12% (w/v) NaCl to grow. The strain is highly thermotolerant: its temperature optimum is 50 degrees C and growth is possible up to 60 degrees C. Polar lipid analysis revealed the presence of the...
