The importance of Actinobacteria in Arctic soil
BOŠKOVÁ, Hana
This work is aimed for Actinobacteria and describes their importance in Arctic soil. The members of Actinobacteria are known for their ability to decompose complex natural biopolymers and because they are able to live in harsh arctic environment they could play there an important role in organic matter decomposition. The work compares their abundance in different soil horizons with the focus on cryoturbations and determines the influence of temperature on their amount. This work also represents the results of testing pure Actinobacterial isolates for the production of cellulolytic enzymes.
Kinetics and temperature dependance of cellulose degrading enzymes in the Arctic soils
VAZAČ, Jan
Kinetics and temperature dependance of ?-glucosidase and cellobiosidase was investigated in Arctic soil. These enzymes are key in cellulose degradation, while ?-glucosidase produces the final product of cellulose degradation, the glucose, which si readily available to soil microbes and can influence the CO2 production. The enzymes activities was measured using fluorogenic substrates.
