Community proteomics of oxic-anoxic cycling in the Great Salt Lake, Utah

Lead Institution

National Ecological Observatory Network

Principal Investigator

John Parnell

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Extreme environments generally contain stable low-complexity microbial communities making them good targets for community proteomic studies. Often the caveat for low-complexity communities is the…

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Stephen Callister

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Multiple capabilities at EMSL will be applied to mat microbial communities present along a salinity gradient between the North and South arms of the Great Salt Lake, UT. These lithifying microbial…
