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 کاملBiology of moderately halophilic aerobic bacteria.
The moderately halophilic heterotrophic aerobic bacteria form a diverse group of microorganisms. The property of halophilism is widespread within the bacterial domain. Bacterial halophiles are abundant in environments such as salt lakes, saline soils, and salted food products. Most species keep their intracellular ionic concentrations at low levels while synthesizing or accumulating organic sol...
متن کاملPiscibacillus halophilus sp. nov., a moderately halophilic bacterium from a hypersaline Iranian lake.
A Gram-positive, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain HS224(T), was isolated from the hypersaline lake Howz-Soltan in Iran. Cells of strain HS224(T) were rod-shaped, motile and produced oval endospores. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HS224(T) was affiliated to the genus Piscibacillus, exhibiting 98.5 % sequence similarity to the type stra...
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 ...
