The LysR-type transcription factor PacR is a global regulator of photosynthetic carbon assimilation in Anabaena
(Blackwell Publishing, 2015)
Cyanobacteria perform water-splitting photosynthesis and are important primary producers impacting the carbon and nitrogen cycles at global scale. They fix CO2 through ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) ...

Branching and intercellular communication in the Section V cyanobacterium Mastigocladus laminosus, a complex multicellular prokaryote
(wiley, 2014)
The filamentous Section V cyanobacterium Mastigocladus laminosus is one of the most morphologically complex prokaryotes. It exhibits cellular division in multiple planes, resulting in the formation of true branches, and ...

All4312, an NtcA-regulated two-component response regulator in Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120
(Blackwell Publishing, 2006)
All4312, encoded by open reading frame all4312 in the genome of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, exhibits a CheY-like receiver domain and an output domain similar to that of OmpR, ...

Role of Two Cell Wall Amidases in Septal Junction and Nanopore Formation in the Multicellular Cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
Filamentous cyanobacteria have developed a strategy to perform incompatible processes in one filament by differentiating specialized cell types, N2-fixing heterocysts and CO2-fixing, photosynthetic, vegetative cells. ...

Cell Envelope Components Influencing Filament Length in the Heterocyst-Forming Cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. Strain PCC 7120
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014)
Heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria grow as chains of cells (known as trichomes or filaments) that can be hundreds of cells long. The filament consists of individual cells surrounded by a cytoplasmic membrane and peptidoglycan ...

Mutual dependence of the expression of the cell differentiation regulatory protein HetR and the global nitrogen regulator NtcA during heterocyst development
(Wiley, 2002)
Heterocyst differentiation in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 depends on both the global nitrogen regulator NtcA and the cell differentiation regulatory protein HetR, and induction of hetR upon nitrogen ...
Artículo
ChIP analysis unravels an exceptionally wide distribution of DNA binding sites for the NtcA transcription factor in a heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Background The CRP-family transcription factor NtcA, universally found in cyanobacteria, was initially discovered as a regulator operating N control. It responds to the N regime signaled by the internal 2-oxoglutarate ...
Artículo
Intercellular Diffusion of a Fluorescent Sucrose Analog via the Septal Junctions in a Filamentous Cyanobacterium
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015)
Many filamentous cyanobacteria produce specialized nitrogen-fixing cells called heterocysts, which are located at semiregular intervals along the filament with about 10 to 20 photosynthetic vegetative cells in between. ...
Artículo
Predicting substrate exchange in marine diatom-heterocystous cyanobacteria symbioses
(Wiley, 2020)
In the open ocean, some phytoplankton establish symbiosis with cyanobacteria. Some partnerships involve diatoms as hosts and heterocystous cyanobacteria as symbionts. Heterocysts are specialized cells for nitrogen fixation, ...
Artículo
Specific mutations in the permease domain of septal protein SepJ differentially affect functions related to multicellularity in the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena
(Shared Science Publishers, 2018)
Filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria are multicellular organisms in which growth requires the activity of two interdependent cell types that exchange nutrients and regulators. Vegetative cells provide heterocysts ...
