Wide Distribution among Halophilic Archaea of a Novel Polyhydroxyalkanoate Synthase Subtype with Homology to Bacterial Type III Synthases
TL;DR: A novel subtype of type III PHA synthase with unique features that distinguish it from the bacterial subtype (IIIB) is widely distributed in haloarchaea and appears to be involved in PHA biosynthesis.

Biosynthesis, characterization, and hemostasis potential of tailor-made poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) produced by Haloferax mediterranei.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the biosynthesis of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3hydroxyvalerate) random copolymers (R-PHBV) or higher-order copolymer (O-PHBPV) in Haloferax mediterranei, with adjustable 3HV incorporation by cofeeding valerate with glucose.

Biodegradation and biocompatibility of haloarchaea-produced poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymers
TL;DR: Cell biocompatibility of solution-cast films and biodegradation data revealed that haloarchaea-produced R-PHBHV and O-PHbHV copolyesters had a wild range of biodegrading profiles and excellent biOCompatibility, which would have great potential for use in different biomedical applications.
