Microbial degradation of dissolved proteins in seawater1
Open accessAbstract
An experimental protocol using radiolabeled proteins was developed to investigate the rates and mechanisms whereby dissolved proteins are degraded in natural marine plankton communities. The results of field observations and laboratory experiments indicate that proteins are degraded by a particle‐bound, thermolabile system, presumably bacteria‐associated enzymes, with an apparent half‐saturation constant of ca. 25 µ g bovine serum albumin (BSA) per liter (ca. 1.7 × 10‒10 M). Gel permeation chromatography indicates that peptides of chain length intermediate between BSA and the final products of degradation (MW < 700) do not accumulate in the medium. Competition experiments indicate that the system is relatively nonspecific (affinity: proteins > large peptides ≫ small peptides). Turnover rates for the protein pool in samples collected in the Southern California Bight were of the same order of magnitude as the turnover rate of the l‐leucine pool and were correlated with primary productivity, chlorophyll a concentrations, bacterial abundance and biomass, and l‐leucine turnover rate. These data suggest that amino acids derived from proteins are utilized preferentially and do not completely mix with the amino acids in the bulk phase.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
