The Gully is the first Fisheries and Oceans Canada marine protected area off the eastern coast of Canada. To ensure success of conservation efforts in this area, it is essential to develop a better understanding of microbial community composition from the euphotic zone to the deep sea in this previously unsurveyed environment. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and nucleotide sequencing were used to characterize microbial community structure. DGGE results showed a clear difference in the microbial community structure between the euphotic zone and the deep sea water. Cluster analysis showed high similarity (>85%) for all the samples taken from below 500 m, but lower similarity (49%–72%) when comparing samples from above and below 500 m. Changes in microbial community structure with depth corresponded well with changes in oceanographic physical parameters. Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene analysis showed that the bacterioplankton sequences generally clustered into 1 of 9 major lineages commonly found in marine systems. However, not all the major lineages were detected at all the different depths. The SAR11 and SAR116 sequences were only present in the surface water, and the SAR324 and Actinobacteria sequences were only present in deep sea water. These findings provide a preliminary characterization of the microbial communities of this unique ecosystem.

The bacterium Alteromonas sp. ML52, isolated from deep-sea water, was found to synthesize an intracellular cold-adapted β-galactosidase. A novel β-galactosidase gene from strain ML52, encoding 1058 amino acids residues, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The enzyme belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 2 and is active as a homotetrameric protein. The recombinant enzyme had maximum activity at 35 °C and pH 8 with a low thermal stability over 30 °C. The enzyme also exhibited a Km of 0.14 mM, a Vmax of 464.7 U/mg and a kcat of 3688.1 S−1 at 35 °C with 2-nitrophenyl-β-d-galactopyranoside as a substrate. Hydrolysis of lactose assay, performed using milk, indicated that over 90% lactose in milk was hydrolyzed after incubation for 5 h at 25 °C or 24 h at 4 °C and 10 °C, respectively. These properties suggest that recombinant Alteromonas sp. ML52 β-galactosidase is a potential biocatalyst for the lactose-reduced dairy industry.

O leite de ovelha possui diferentes propriedades físico-químicas, o que significa que seus derivados têm alto valor agregado. Parte dessas propriedades é conferida por bactérias lácticas que desempenham importantes atividades no leite cru. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar cinco bactérias lácticas previamente identificadas e avaliadas quanto a seus parâmetros de acidificação, proteólise, produção de diacetil e exopolissacarídeos, potencial atividade antimicrobiana e parâmetros de segurança. A identificação do gene 16S rDNA por sequenciamento mostrou concordância com os dados obtidos por MALDI-TOF/MS. As bactérias foram identificadas como Lactococcus lactis MRS1, Lactococcus lactis MRS2, Lactococcus lactis MRS5, Lactococcus lactis MRS6 e Enterococcus faecalis M173. Todos os isolados apresentaram o mesmo perfil de acidificação, mantendo o pH em 4,5 a partir de 6 horas de incubação, nas condições empregadas. Atividade proteolítica, capacidade de coexistência e produção de exopolissacarídeos foram observadas em todos os isolados testados. A produção de diacetil foi evidente nos isolados Lactococcus lactis MRS1 e Lactococcus lactis MRS2. Em relação à presença de atividade antimicrobiana, os isolados de Lactococcus lactis MRS6 e Enterococcus faecalis M173 inibiram todas as culturas testadas. Na avaliação dos parâmetros de segurança, nenhum dos isolados apresentou resistência de alto nível a antibióticos clinicamente importantes e não apresentaram produção de gelatinase e atividade hemolítica. Estes resultados fornecem uma informação importante sobre as potenciais bactérias a serem exploradas para a aplicação em produtos derivados de leite de ovelha, em condições de cultura starter ou adjuntas.

<p>β-Galactosidase is enzyme which hydrolyze lactose to glucose and galactose, as lactose hydrolyzer. To know indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) characteristics, indigenous LAB identification, partial purification and characterization of β-galactosidase produced was researched. LAB was molecularly identified, β-galactosidase partial purification was conducted by precipitation followed dialysis. β-Galactosidase  characterization was based on optimum activities of pH and temperature. The results show that LAB was identified as <em>Lactobacillus plantarum</em> B123. Optimum activity of precipited β-galactosidase was reached at 50 % ammonium sulphate. Activity and specific activity of 50 % precipited β-galactosidase were 95.675 U · mg<sup>–1</sup> and 32.268 U · mg<sup>–1</sup>, respectively. Precipited β-galactosidase resulted a purification level of 3.99 fold, a yield of 38.73 %, and a specific activity of 32.27 U · mg<sup>–1</sup> protein, while dialyzed β-galactosidase resulted 7.61 fold, 10.67 %, and 61.53 U· mg<sup>–1</sup> protein. Optimum temperature and pH for crude β-galactosidase were found at 55 °C and 7.0, respectively, while that dialyzed β-galactosidase were optimized at 50 °C and 7.0. Based on partial purification and characterization, <em>Lactobacillus plantarum</em> B123 is indigenous LAB which good for production of β-galactosidase.</p><div><p class="Els-keywords"><em> </em></p><p class="Els-keywords"><strong>Keywords:</strong> characterization; dialysis; lactic acid bacteria; <em>Lactobacillus plantarum</em> B 123; β-galactosidase.</p></div>
