BONCAT

Single-cell heterotrophic activity in deep-ocean prokaryotic communities quantified by BONCAT and microautoradiography

Prokaryotes play a central role in marine biogeochemical cycles, yet quantifying their activity requires sensitive methods, particularly in the deep ocean where their biomass and …

BONCAT

Comparison of picolyl azide-based BONCAT and microautoradiography for assessing the heterotrophic prokaryotic activity in the deep ocean

Prokaryotes play a central role in marine biogeochemical cycles, yet quantifying their activity requires sensitive methods due to low biomass and metabolic rates, particularly in …

Hydrostatic Pressure

Limited carbon cycling due to high-pressure effects on the deep-sea microbiome

Deep-sea microbial communities are exposed to high-pressure conditions, which has a variable impact on prokaryotes depending on whether they are piezophilic (that is, …
