Project description:Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of Candidatus Nanohaloarchaeota and the closely related lineages from soda-saline lakes in China
Project description:In this study we used metaproteomics to discern the metabolism and physiology of the microorganisms occurring in the phototrophic mats of four soda lakes in the interior of British Columbia, Canada. Binned and assembled metagenomes were used as the database for protein identification.
Project description:A new haloalkaliphilic species of Wenzhouxiangella, strain AB-CW3 was isolated from a system of alkaline soda lakes in the Kulunda Steppe. Its complete, circular genome was assembled from combined nanopore and illumina sequencing and its proteome was determined for three different experimental conditions: growth on Staphylococcus cells, casein, or peptone. AB-CW3 is an aerobic bacterium feeding mainly on proteins and peptides.
