Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, and Bioactive Potential of Two New Haloarchaeal Strains Isolated from Odiel Salterns (Southwest Spain)
Gómez Villegas, Patricia; Vigara Fernández, Javier
; Vila Spinola, Marta; Varela, João; Barreira, Luísa; León Bañares, Rosa María (2020-09-18)
The need to survive in extreme environments has furnished haloarchaea with a series of components specially adapted to work in such conditions. The possible application of these molecules in the pharmaceutical and industrial ... -
Biochemical Characterization of the Amylase Activity from the New Haloarchaeal Strain Haloarcula sp. HS Isolated in the Odiel Marshlands
Gómez Villegas, Patricia; Vigara Fernández, Javier; Romero, Luis; Gotor, Cecilia; Raposo, Sara; Gonçalves, Brígida; León Bañares, Rosa María (MDPI, 2021-04)
Alpha-amylases are a large family of ,1-4-endo-glycosyl hydrolases distributed in all kingdoms of life. The need for poly-extremotolerant amylases encouraged their search in extreme environments, where archaea become ... -
Characterization of the Microbial Population Inhabiting a Solar Saltern Pond of the Odiel Marshlands (SW Spain)
Gómez Villegas, Patricia; Vigara Fernández, Javier; León Bañares, Rosa María (MDPI, 2018-09)
The solar salterns located in the Odiel marshlands, in southwest Spain, are an excellent example of a hypersaline environment inhabited by microbial populations specialized in thriving under conditions of high salinity, ... -
Metabarcoding data of prokaryotes and eukaryotes inhabiting the phosphogypsum stockpiles on the salt marshes of Huelva (SW Spain)
Gómez Villegas, Patricia; Guzmán Guerrero, José Luis; Pérez Rodríguez, Miguel; Bolívar Raya, Juan Pedro; Vigara Fernández, Javier; León Bañares, Rosa María (Elsevier, 2022-02-22)
Around 100 Mt of phosphogypsum (PG) of extreme acidity and with high concentrations of heavy metals and radionuclides have been deposited on the salt marshes of the Tinto River estuary in Huelva (SW Spain) for more than ... -
Metagenomic characterization, bioactive properties and biotechnological applications of the extremophilic microorganisms inhabiting Odiel saltern ponds
(Universidad de Huelva, 2021)Extremophilic microorganisms are those that live under the most severe conditions for life on Earth, including extreme values of temperature, pressure, pH, radiation, or salinity, among others. What is really surprising ... -
Up-Regulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 Antioxidant Pathway in Macrophages by an Extract from a New Halophilic Archaea Isolated in Odiel Saltworks
Ávila Román, Javier; Gómez Villegas, Patricia; Carvalho, Carla C. C. R. de; Vigara Fernández, Javier; Motilva, Virginia; León Bañares, Rosa María; Talero, Elena (MDPI, 2023-05)
The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the progression of many inflammatory diseases. The search for antioxidants with the ability for scavenging free radicals from the body cells that ...
