This paper introduces GRN-BMuSeR, a Bayesian multi-species method for gene regulatory network inference, showing improved performance in bacteria and novel predictions in archaea.

The paper shows that the archaeal transcription factor RosR has divergent functions across species despite strong sequence conservation, likely due to flexible cis-trans interactions.

This study identifies and characterizes two new families of archaeal bactofilins, HalA and HalB, showing their roles in shaping cell morphology and curvature in Haloferax volcanii.

This paper compares rRNA removal methods for RNA-seq in halophilic archaea, finding that probe-specificity is critical for effective rRNA depletion and improved transcript detection.
