Organic 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 کاملChitinolytic 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 کاملArsenite as an Electron Donor for Anoxygenic Photosynthesis: Description of Three Strains of Ectothiorhodospira from Mono Lake, California and Big Soda Lake, Nevada
Three novel strains of photosynthetic bacteria from the family Ectothiorhodospiraceae were isolated from soda lakes of the Great Basin Desert, USA by employing arsenite (As(III)) as the sole electron donor in the enrichment/isolation process. Strain PHS-1 was previously isolated from a hot spring in Mono Lake, while strain MLW-1 was obtained from Mono Lake sediment, and strain BSL-9 was isolate...
متن کاملMetagenomic Insights into the Uncultured Diversity and Physiology of Microbes in Four Hypersaline Soda Lake Brines
Soda lakes are salt lakes with a naturally alkaline pH due to evaporative concentration of sodium carbonates in the absence of major divalent cations. Hypersaline soda brines harbor microbial communities with a high species- and strain-level archaeal diversity and a large proportion of still uncultured poly-extremophiles compared to neutral brines of similar salinities. We present the first "me...
متن کاملComposition and Activity of Microbial Communities along the Redox Gradient of an Alkaline, Hypersaline, Lake
We compared the composition of microbial communities obtained by sequencing 16S rRNA gene amplicons with taxonomy derived from metatranscriptomes from the same samples. Samples were collected from alkaline, hypersaline Mono Lake, California, USA at five depths that captured the major redox zones of the lake during the onset of meromixis. The prokaryotic community was dominated by bacteria from ...
