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 ...

Glucose uptake and its effect on gene expression in Prochlorococcus
(Public Library of Science, 2008)
The marine cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus have been considered photoautotrophic microorganisms, although the utilization of exogenous sugars has never been specifically addressed in them. We studied glucose uptake in different ...

Characterization of an alcohol dehydrogenase from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 that responds to environmental stress conditions via the Hik34-Rre1 two-component system
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
The slr1192 (adhA) gene from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 encodes a member of the medium-chain alcohol dehydrogenase/reductase family. The gene product AdhA exhibits NADP-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase activity, ...

Posttranscriptional regulation of glutamine synthetase in the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120: Differential expression between vegetative cells and heterocysts
(American Society for Microbiology, 2010)
Genes homologous to those implicated in glutamine synthetase (GS) regulation by protein-protein interaction in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 are conserved in several cyanobacterial sequenced genomes. ...

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 ...

Substrate binding and catalysis by ribonuclease P from cyanobacteria and Escherichia coli are affected differently by the 3′ terminal CCA in tRNA precursors
(The National Academy of Sciences, 1999)
We have studied the effect of the 3′ terminal CCA sequence in precursors of tRNAs on catalysis by the RNase P RNA or the holoenzyme from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 in a completely homologous system. We ...

Septum-localized protein required for filament integrity and diazotrophy in the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007)
Heterocysts, formed when filamentous cyanobacteria, such as Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, are grown in the absence of combined nitrogen, are cells that are specialized in fixing atmospheric nitrogen (N2) under oxic conditions ...

Heterocyst development and diazotrophic metabolism in terminal respiratory oxidase mutants of the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007)
Heterocyst development was analyzed in mutants of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 bearing inactivated cox2 and/or cox3 genes, encoding heterocyst-specific terminal respiratory oxidases. ...
