Transcription activation by NtcA and 2-oxoglutarate of three genes involved in heterocyst differentiation in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
In Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, differentiation of heterocysts takes place in response to the external cue of combined nitrogen deprivation, allowing the organism to fix atmospheric nitrogen in oxic environments. NtcA, a ...

Alr0397 is an outer membrane transporter for the siderophore schizokinen in Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
Iron uptake in proteobacteria by TonB-dependent outer membrane transporters represents a well-explored subject. In contrast, the same process has been scarcely investigated in cyanobacteria. The heterocyst-forming ...

Expression and mutational analysis of the glnB genomic region in the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
In the filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, the glnB gene is expressed at considerable levels both in the presence and in the absence of combined nitrogen, although induction, ...

Localized induction of the ntcA regulatory gene in developing heterocysts of Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2006)
The ntcA gene encodes an N-control transcriptional regulator in cyanobacteria. In the N2-fixing, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, ntcA is an autoregulatory gene that is transcribed from a ...

A TolC-like protein is required for heterocyst development in anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007)
The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 forms heterocysts in a semiregular pattern when it is grown on N2 as the sole nitrogen source. The transition from vegetative cells to heterocysts requires marked ...

NtcA-regulated heterocyst differentiation genes hetC and devB from Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 exhibit a similar tandem promoter arrangement
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
Transcription of the hetC gene, whose product is required for heterocyst differentiation, takes place from a long promoter region that includes the previously described HetR-independent, NtcA-activated promoter producing ...

Role of two NtcA-binding sites in the complex ntcA gene promoter of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 is a filamentous cyanobacterium that fixes N2 in specialized cells called heterocysts, which differentiate from vegetative cells in a process that requires the nitrogen control transcription ...
Artículo
The NtcA-dependent P1 promoter is utilized for glnA expression in N2-fixing heterocysts of Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-11)
Expression of the glnA gene encoding glutamine synthetase, a key enzyme in nitrogen metabolism, is subject to a variety of regulatory mechanisms in different organisms. In the filamentous, N2-fixing cyanobacteritim Anabaena ...

The NtcA-regulated amtB gene is necessary for full methylammonium uptake activity in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007)
The Amt proteins constitute a ubiquitous family of transmembrane ammonia channels that permit the net uptake of ammonium by cells. In many organisms, there is more than one amt gene, and these genes are subjected to nitrogen ...

The amt gene cluster of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
The genome of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 bears a gene cluster including three amt genes that, based on homology of their protein products, we designate amt4, amt1, and amtB. Expression ...
