Samylina, Olga S. (author), Kosyakova, Anastasia I. (author), Krylov, Artem A. (author), Sorokin, Dimitry Y. (author), Pimenov, Nikolay V. (author)A variety of lakes located in the dry steppe area of southwestern Siberia are exposed to rapid climatic changes, including intra-century cycles with alternating dry and wet phases driven by solar activity. As a result, the salt lakes of that region experience significant fluctuations in water level and salinity, which have an essential impact...journal article 2024

Sorokin, Dimitry Y. (author), Merkerl, Alexander Y. (author)The genus <i>Natranaerovirga</i> is a member of the class <i>Clostridia</i>. It includes obligately anaerobic, fermentative heterotrophs which whose key metabolic property is the ability to utilizes polygalacturonates as growth substrates. The species of the genus are highly salt-tolerant, chloride-independent, obligate alkaliphiles found in...book chapter 2024

Sorokin, Dimitry Y. (author), Elcheninov, Alexander G. (author), Bale, Nicol J. (author), Sinnighe Damsté, Jaap S. (author), Kublanov, Ilya V. (author)Beta-mannans are insoluble plant polysaccharides with beta-1,4-linked mannose as the backbone. We used three forms of this polysaccharide, namely, pure mannan, glucomannan, and galactomannan, to enrich haloarchaea, which have the ability to utilize mannans for growth. Four mannan-utilizing strains obtained in pure cultures were closely related...journal article 2024

Khomyakova, Maria A. (author), Merkel, Alexander Y. (author), Slobodkin, Alexander I. (author), Sorokin, Dimitry Y. (author)Highly purified cultures of alkaliphilic aceticlastic methanogens were collected for the first time using methanogenic enrichments with acetate from a soda lake and a terrestrial mud volcano. The cells of two strains were non-motile rods forming filaments. The mud volcano strain M04Ac was alkalitolerant, with the pH range for growth from 7.5 to...journal article 2023

(author)Extremely halophilic archaea are one of the principal microbial community components in hypersaline environments. The majority of cultivated haloarchaea are aerobic heterotrophs using peptides or simple sugars as carbon and energy sources. At the same time, a number of novel metabolic capacities of these extremophiles were discovered recently...journal article 2023
