Enrichment and characterization of ammonia-oxidizing archaea from the open ocean: phylogeny, physiology and stable isotope fractionationAlyson E Santoro
Department of Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA
ISME J 5:1796-808. 2011..Despite low amino acid identity between the archaeal and bacterial Amo proteins, their functional diversity as captured by (15)ɛ(NH3) is similar...
Isotopic signature of N(2)O produced by marine ammonia-oxidizing archaeaAlyson E Santoro
Department of Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA
Science 333:1282-5. 2011..Our results suggest that ammonia-oxidizing archaea may be largely responsible for the oceanic N(2)O source...
Assessment of nitrogen and oxygen isotopic fractionation during nitrification and its expression in the marine environmentKaren L Casciotti
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA
Methods Enzymol 486:253-80. 2011..It also outlines some remaining questions and issues related to isotopic fractionation during nitrification...
Activity, abundance and diversity of nitrifying archaea and bacteria in the central California CurrentAlyson E Santoro
Department of Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA
Environ Microbiol 12:1989-2006. 2010..Using an isotope mass balance model, we calculate that nitrification could produce between 0.45 and 2.93 micromol m(-2) day(-1) N(2)O in the central California Current, or approximately 1.5-4 times the local N(2)O flux from deep water...
