Renewable Bio-Solar Hydrogen Production From Robust Oxygenic Phototrophs: The Second Generation

Abstract

Key advances during the 2011-2014 funding period include: (a) We have established a battery of hydrogenase specific activity assays and H cluster spectroscopic probes to assess oxygen tolerance in a quantitative manner. (b) We have characterized the changes in microbial community structure and hydrogenase diversity as a function of the vertical transect of the water column in the Great Salt Lake. (c) We have tested the hypothesis that sequence variations observed through the GSL water column include structural determinants for oxygen tolerance.
