Metaproteomic Dataset on Semi-Diurnal Variability of the Bacterioplankton Communities During a Spring Phytoplankton Bloom in the North Sea.

ABSTRACT: Phytoplankton blooms create a substrate-rich environment that supports the growth of bacterial planktonic heterotrophs. Previously, we studied the dynamics of such bacterioplankton at a long-term ecological research site near the coast of Helgoland Island (North Sea) once a day. Here, we present a novel dataset (available under the PRIDE-ID: PXD055396) indicating significant differences at the protein level in a semi-diurnal analysis. Using metaproteomics, we studied changes in the free-living (0.2-3 µm) bacterial community that occurred between early (7 am) and late (9 pm) sampling over 3 days. The results highlight the sensitivity, robustness, and reproducibility of mass spectrometry-based metaproteomic analyses to assess changes in the activities of the bacterioplankton communities. Tax
