| Abstract | A new chemolithoautotrophic, facultatively alkaliphilic, extremely salt-tolerant, sulfur-oxidizing bacterium was isolated from an alkaline hypersaline lake in the Altai Steppe (Siberia, Russia). According to 16S rDNA analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization, strain HL 17T was identified as a new species of the genus Thialkalivibrio belonging to the γ subdivision of the Proteobacteria for which the name Thialkalivibrio halophilus is proposed. Strain HL 17T is an extremely salt-tolerant bacterium growing at sodium concentrations between 0.2 and 5 M, with an optimum of 2 M Na+. It grew at high concentrations of NaCl and of Na2CO3/NaHCO3 (soda). Strain HL 17T is a facultative alkaliphile growing at pH range 7.5–9.8, with a broad optimum between pH 8.0 and 9.0. It used reduced inorganic sulfur compounds (thiosulfate, sulfide, polysulfide, elemental sulfur, and tetrathionate) as energy sources and electron donors. In continuous culture under energy limitation, thiosulfate was stoichiometrically oxidized to sulfate. In sodium carbonate medium under alkaline conditions, the maximum growth rate was similar, while the biomass yield was lower as compared with the NaCl-grown culture. The maximum sulfur-oxidizing capacity measured in washed cells was higher in the soda buffer independent of the growth conditions. The compatible solute content of the biomass was higher in the sodium chloride-grown culture than in the sodium carbonate/bicarbonate-grown culture. The data suggest that the osmotic pressure differences between soda and NaCl solutions might be responsible for the difference observed in compatible solutes production. This may have important implications in overall energetic metabolism of high salt adaptation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
