Grant Summary

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Metalloenzymes as indicators of ocean biogeochemical processes
Term Amount Date Approved
36 months $1,125,081 Nov. 2010
Purpose
To enable a greater understanding of trace metals and metalloenzymes in oceanic biogeochemical cycles. By combining cutting-edge proteomic tools with trace metal analysis techniques, this project aims to advance the understanding of biogeochemical cycles by identifying and quantifying the abundance of key microbial metalloenzymes in oxygen minimum zones concurrently with trace metal analyses.
