Proteomic tools to decipher microbial community structure and functioning
Recent advances in microbial ecology allow studying microorganisms in their environment, without laboratory cultivation, in order to get access to the large uncultivable microbial community. With this aim, environmental proteomics has emerged as an appropriate complementary approach to metagenomics providing information on key players that carry out main metabolic functions and addressing the a...
متن کاملProteomic databases and tools to decipher post-translational modifications.
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are vital cellular control mechanism, which affect protein properties, including folding, conformation, activity and consequently, their functions. As a result they play a key role in various disease conditions, including cancer and diabetes. Proteomics as a rapidly growing field has witnessed tremendous advancement during the last decade, which has led t...
متن کاملRelating microbial community structure to functioning in forest soil organic carbon transformation and turnover
Forest soils store vast amounts of terrestrial carbon, but we are still limited in mechanistic understanding on how soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization or turnover is controlled by biotic and abiotic factors in forest ecosystems. We used phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) as biomarker to study soil microbial community structure and measured activities of five extracellular enzymes involved in...
متن کاملSystems-based approaches to unravel multi-species microbial community functioning
Some of the most transformative discoveries promising to enable the resolution of this century's grand societal challenges will most likely arise from environmental science and particularly environmental microbiology and biotechnology. Understanding how microbes interact in situ, and how microbial communities respond to environmental changes remains an enormous challenge for science. Systems bi...
متن کاملBioturbation, ecosystem functioning and community structure
The effect of community structure on the functioning of the ecosystem is an important issue in ecology due to continuing global species loss. The influence of infaunal community structure on the functioning of marine systems is proposed here to act primarily through bioturbation of the sediment. Nutrient concentration in the water column, generated by release from the sediment, was used as a me...
