Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus succinus strain CSM-77. This moderately halophilic bacterium was isolated from the surface of a halite sample obtained from a Triassic salt mine.

Serinicoccus profundi MCCC 1A05965(T) was isolated from deep-sea sediment collected from the Indian Ocean. It was a Gram-positive, moderately halophilic, aerobic bacterium. Here, we describe the 3.4-Mbp draft genome sequence of S. profundi MCCC 1A05965(T).

the objective of this study was to isolate halophilic bacteria with the ability to produce intracellular or extracellular l-asparaginase. a total number of 120 halophilic bacteria were isolated from 17 different saline habitats of iran including salt lakes, wetlands, brine springs and deserts. among these, 68 were able to grow in the presence of 1.5 m nacl and 52 demonstrated the ability to gro...

Halophilic bacteria grow over an extended range of salt concentrations. Their metabolic patterns are distinct compared to their terrestrial counterparts and obligate halophiles. The possibility of rapid adjustment to changes in the external salt concentration makes them potential candidates for bioprocessing. Halophilic bacteria produce enzymes, metabolites, solutes, exopolysaccharides and pigm...
