Chitinolytic bacteria from alkaline hypersaline Mono Lake, California, USA
Chitinolytic activity was detected in sediment and water-column samples from Mono Lake, California, USA, using fluorogenic analogues. In order to learn more about chitin degradation in Mono Lake, we analyzed the phylogenetic composition of bacterial assemblages in chitin-enrichment cultures and associated with Artemia monica exuvia. We also isolated chitinolytic bacteria from aerobic and anaero...
متن کاملOrganic osmolytes in aerobic bacteria from mono lake, an alkaline, moderately hypersaline environment.
The identity and concentrations of intracellular organic solutes were determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for two strains of aerobic, gram-negative bacteria isolated from Mono Lake, Calif., an alkaline, moderately hypersaline lake. Ectoine (1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid) was the major endogenous solute in both organisms. Concentrations of ectoine vari...
متن کاملGenome Sequences of Two Spore-Forming Bacteria Isolated from the Shore of Mono Lake, California
Here, we report the draft genome sequences of two Bacillus spore-forming Gram-positive bacteria, isolated from soil on the shore of Mono Lake.
متن کاملAssessing Ecological Impact Assessment: Lessons from Mono Lake, California.
Because of its high salinity and alkalinity, Mono Lake, in eastern California (USA), is a relatively simple ecosystem. It has become the focus of an environmental controversy over the effects of 50 yr of diversions of water from tributary streams to supply water to Los Angeles. Diversions lowered the lake level, increased the salinity, changed the availability of aquatic habitats, and altered t...
متن کاملThe microbial arsenic cycle in Mono Lake, California.
Significant concentrations of dissolved inorganic arsenic can be found in the waters of a number of lakes located in the western USA and in other water bodies around the world. These lakes are often situated in arid, volcanic terrain. The highest concentrations of arsenic occur in hypersaline, closed basin soda lakes and their remnant brines. Although arsenic is a well-known toxicant to eukaryo...
