Prokaryotic Aminopeptidase Activity along a Continuous Salinity Gradient in a Hypersaline Coastal Lagoon (the Coorong, South Australia)

Pollet, Thomas; Schapira, Mathilde; Buscot, Marie-Jeanne; Leterme, Sophie C; Mitchell, James G; Seuront, Laurent (BioMed Central, 2010-4-30)

The distribution and aminopeptidase activity of prokaryotes were investigated along a natural continuous salinity gradient in a hypersaline coastal lagoon, the Coorong, South Australia. The abundance of prokaryotes ...
Distribution of picophytoplankton communities from brackish hypersaline waters in a South Australian coastal lagoon

Schapira, Mathilde; Buscot, Marie-Jeanne; Pollet, Thomas; Leterme, Sophie C.; Seuront, Laurent (BioMed Central, 2010-2-24)

BACKGROUND. Picophytoplankton (i.e. cyanobacteria and pico-eukaryotes) are abundant and ecologically critical components of the autotrophic communities in the pelagic realm. These micro-organisms colonized a variety of ...
Efficiency of complex production in changing environment

Carmi, Shai; Levanon, Erez Y.; Eisenberg, Eli (BioMed Central, 2009-1-7)

BACKGROUND: Cell function necessitates the assemblage of proteins into complexes, a process which requires further regulation on top of the fairly understood mechanisms used to control the transcription and translation of ...
