F 1F oATP synthase a-subunit of Stenotrophomonas sp. DL18 from Indian Soda Lake, Lonar: a brief report [version 2; peer review: 2 not approved]
Lonar Lake, an Indian soda lake with high alkaline conditions of pH 10.5, is well known for its biodiversity of extremophiles including alkaliphiles. Most of the molecular studies on Lonar Lake alkaliphiles are based on identification by 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA). Various studies have reported al...

Summary: | Lonar Lake, an Indian soda lake with high alkaline conditions of pH 10.5, is well known for its biodiversity of extremophiles including alkaliphiles. Most of the molecular studies on Lonar Lake alkaliphiles are based on identification by 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA). Various studies have reported alkaliphiles from different alkaline habitats other than Lonar Lake with alkaliphile specific amino acid residues in the F

oATP synthase a-subunit. As the data on the alkaliphilic nature of bacteria from Lonar Lake is incompletely understood, the present report comprised of isolation and identification of alkaliphiles from Lonar Lake. Further, we studied the F1FoATP synthase a- subunit, with reference to alkaliphile specific domains, of one of the facultative alkaliphiles,
