	Halophile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Halophiles are extremophiles that thrive in environments with very high concentrations of salt (at least 0.2 M).
		Of particular note are the extreme halophiles or halobacteria, a group of archaea, which require at least 2 M of salt and are usually found in saturated solutions.
		Halophiles adapt to salty enviroments by developing "purple membranes." Among the adaptations that halophiles employ to survive in such environments are proteins evolved to function in high ionic strength solution, and maintaining high concentrations of inert solutes within their cytoplasm to reduce osmotic pressure.

		Halophiles are extremophiles that thrive in environments with very high concentrations of salt.
		The photosynthesizers in this category are purple because instead of using chlorophyll to photosynthesize, they use a similar pigment called bacteriorhodopsin that uses all light except for purple light, making the cells appear purple.

		"Halophiles are excellent for biotechnology because they are easily manipulated cell factories that need concentrated sea water and desert, two commodities in plentiful supply on our planet." Such halophile microbes use sunlight to make energy.
		Halophiles are also relatively easy to culture in the laboratory and harmless to humans.
		Inside the single cell of a type of halophile called Halobacterium, some metabolic aspects are similar to systems in higher organisms, or eukaryotes, especially in the way genes turn on and off.

		The primary structure of the ribosomal A-protein (L12) from the moderate halophile NRCC 41227.
		The complete amino acid sequence of the ribosomal A-protein (equivalent to L7/L12 in Escherichia coli) from a moderate halophile, NRCC 41227, has been determined using an automatic Beckman sequencer and by the manual Edman cleavage of peptides obtained from selective proteolytic cleavage of the ribosomal A-protein.
		The moderate halophile NRCC 41227 is part of a group of Gram-negative bacteria that include E. coli and another moderate halophile Vibrio costicola.

		If you placed a non halophilic organism in a solution with a high amount of dissolved salts the water will move from inside the cell into the solution causing the cell to plasmolyze.ó¨Osmoregulation¨Halophiles have adapted to life at high salinity in many different ways.
		They tend to have negatively charged proteins on the outside of their cell walls that stabilize it by binding to positively charged sodium ions in their external environments.
		This strategy is primarily used by aerobic, extremely halophilic archaea and anaerobic bacteria.

		Professor Danson said there was a good chance that there might have been crystalline salt or even underground water on Mars.
		"There are many people who think that understanding these extreme halophiles will help us to detect if there are organisms on Mars that could well be halophilic in nature," he said.
		"By understanding halophiles and extremophilic life on this Earth, we may be in a much better position to detect life which is either living, or has lived, on other planets."
