Bakterium setzt sich in „Todeszone“ durch
Warnemünder Mikrobiologen vom Leibniz-Institut für Ostseeforschung untersuchten erfolgreich ein Bakterium, welches trotz Sauerstoffmangel in der „Todeszone“ überleben kann.
(ROSTOCK) Mikrobiologen vom Leibniz-Institut für Ostseeforschung in Warnemünde (IOW) beschreiben erstmals umfassend ein Bakterium, das an den Grenzen so genannter „Todeszonen“ in Ostsee und Schwarzem Meer die Ausbreitung giftigen Schwefelwasserstoffes verhindert.
Sauerstoff ist auch unter Wasser ein lebenswichtiges Element. Zu den prominentesten Vertretern dieses Phänomens gehören die so genannten „Todeszonen“ in der Ostsee und dem Schwarzem Meer. Hier herrscht am Boden regelmäßig, bzw. im Falle des Schwarzen Meeres sogar permanent, Sauerstoffmangel, begleitet vom Auftreten toxischen Schwefelwasserstoffs (Sulfid).
Wegen der hohen ökonomischen Schäden und der postulierten und in Ansätzen bereits beobachteten Zunahme dieser Phänomene arbeiten weltweit Biogeochemiker und Mikrobiologen zusammen mit physikalischen Ozeanographen an der Erforschung der Mechanismen. Dass die Ausbreitung der Sulfide durch Bakterien verhindert werden kann, weiß man bereits seit einiger Zeit. Unklar war jedoch, wie dieser Prozess genau funktioniert, da die beteiligten Organismen kaum bekannt waren.
Den Mikrobiologen des IOW gelang es nun erstmals, einen Hauptakteur bei der Sulfid-Entgiftung in Sauerstoffminimumzonen zu isolieren, zu kultivieren und hinsichtlich seiner Physiologie zu untersuchen. Zusammen mit Kollegen des Max-Planck-Instituts für marine Mikrobiologie in Bremen konnte außerdem seine genetische Ausstattung umfassend beschrieben werden.
„Sulfurimonas gotlandica“ ist die vorläufige Bezeichnung dieses Vertreters der so genannten Epsilonproteobakterien, den die Warnemünder in der Grenzschicht zwischen Sauerstoff-haltigem (oxischem) und Sauerstoff-freiem (anoxischem) Wasser im Gotlandbecken in der zentralen Ostsee in großer Häufigkeit fanden. Seine Eigenschaften sind erstaunlich: bei der Wahl seiner Energiequellen beschränkt sich dieses Bakterium nicht auf Sulfid, sondern ist äußerst flexibel und kann deshalb sowohl im oxischen als auch im anoxischen Wasser leben. Die genetische Analyse zeigt, dass es mit einer Umweltsensorik und einer hohen Beweglichkeit ausgestattet ist, die es ihm ermöglichen, die energetisch günstigsten Umgebungen aktiv aufzusuchen. Zu der ökologisch so bedeutenden Fähigkeit der Sulfidentgiftung gesellen sich weitere wichtige Eigenschaften: Die Zellen sind in der Lage, Nitrat zu elementarem Stickstoff zu reduzieren (die so genannte Denitrifizierung, die überdüngten Gewässern hilft, einen Teil des Nährstoffs Stickstoff los zu werden), und können die Energie dazu benutzen, im Dunkeln CO2 zu fixieren, um so Biomasse aufzubauen.
Mit „S. gotlandica“ haben die Warnemünder Mikrobiologen nun der Wissenschaft einen Modellorganismus zur Verfügung gestellt, der einerseits repräsentativ für eine ganze Gruppe von relativ ungewöhnlichen Bakterien ist, an dem andererseits so wichtige Prozesse wie die Sulfidentgiftung modellhaft im Labor studiert werden können. Dies wird es der wissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaft insgesamt erleichtern, marine „Todeszonen“ zu verstehen und eventuell sogar aktiv beeinflussen zu können.
Das IOW ist Mitglied der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft, zu der zurzeit 87 Forschungsinstitute und wissenschaftliche Infrastruktureinrichtungen für die Forschung gehören.

As soon as I detected this internet web site I went on reddit to share some of the really like with them.
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?
You actually make it seem so easy together with your presentation however I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would by no means understand. It seems too complex and very vast for me. I am taking a look ahead in your subsequent put up, I’ll attempt to get the cling of it!
