Abstract
Phosphorus is one of the major biogenic elements. Its inflow facilitates eutrophication of lake water. In aquatic ecosystems, phosphorus is present mostly in organic compounds. Ability of aquatic microorganisms to assimilate phosphorus from organophosphorous compounds results from activity of alkaline phosphatases; activity of these enzymes may be an indicator of the state of the ecosystem, phosphate load, and water quality. In the present work, alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) and abundance of phosphatase-active bacteria (PAB) in Lake Baikal pelagic zone and in the mouths of its major tributaries was studied. In the pelagic zone, APA and PAB abundance decreased with depth, indicating that the main processes of phosphate generation occurred in the trophic layer of the lake. In the main tributaries, both APA and PAB abundance were considerably higher than in the pelagic zone. These results indicate active biochemical processes of transformation of organophosphorous compounds occur in the estuarine zones of the rivers. The degradation processes result in regeneration of phosphates, which are completely incorporated in the biological turnover, providing for phytoplankton development.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
