This project investigates the dynamics of previously unknown prokaryotes in the marine nitrogen cycle, focusing on Crenarchaea and Euryarchaea. It aims to differentiate between free-living and particle-attached communities in European coastal waters, enhancing understanding of nitrogen transformation processes.
Our knowledge on the marine nitrogen cycle has undergone some major revisions very recently with the discovery of novel pathways mediated by thus far unknown and partly unculturable prokaryotes.
Among these new drivers of the nitrogen cycle are non-thermophilic Crenarchaea and Euryarchaea.
Recently, Crenarchaea have been shown to harbor the amoA gene, responsible for the expression of ammonia monooxygenase, which represents a key enzyme in the nitrification step.
The project aims at determining…
