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 ...

Identification of an extracellular infection-induced glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase of the phytopathogenic proteobacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2014)
According to molecular biology, genomic and proteo- mic data, the phytopathogenic gamma-proteobacte- rium Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 pro-duces a number of proteins that may promote infec- tion and draw nutrients ...

A hydrogen bond network in the active site of Anabaena ferredoxin-NADP + reductase modulates its catalytic efficiency
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
Ferredoxin-nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) reductase (FNR) catalyses the production of reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) in photosynthetic organisms, where its flavin adenine ...

External loops at the ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase protein-partner binding cavity contribute to substrates allocation
(Elsevier, 2014)
Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) is the structural prototype of a family of FAD-containing reductases that catalyze electron transfer between low potential proteins and NAD(P)+/H, and that display a two-domain arrangement ...

The dynamic complex of cytochrome c6 and cytochrome f studied with paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
The rapid transfer of electrons in the photosynthetic redox chain is achieved by the formation of short-lived complexes of cytochrome b6f with the electron transfer proteins plastocyanin and cytochrome c6. A balance must ...

Comparison of Microcystis aeruginosa (PCC7820 and PCC7806) growth and intracellular microcystins content determined by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay anti-Adda and phosphatase bioassay
(IWA Publishing, 2014)
Cyanobacteria are able to produce several metabolites that have toxic effects on humans and animals. Among these cyanotoxins, the hepatotoxic microcystins (MC) occur frequently. The intracellular MC content produced by two ...

Starch synthase 4 is located in the thylakoid membrane and interacts with plastoglobule-associated proteins in Arabidopsis
(Wiley, 2014)
Starch synthesis requires the formation of a primer that can be subsequently elongated and branched. How this primer is produced, however, remains unknown. The control of the number of starch granules produced per chloroplast ...

Proteomic pattern alterations of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 in response to cadmium, nickel and cobalt
(Elsevier, 2014)
Cyanobacteria represent the largest and most diverse group of prokaryotes capable of performing oxygenic photosynthesis and are frequently found in environments contaminated with heavy metals. Several studies have been ...

NtcA is responsible for accumulation of the small isoform of ferredoxin:NADP oxidoreductase
(Microbiology Society, 2014-04-01)
In several cyanobacteria, petH, the gene encoding ferredoxin:NADP oxidoreductase (FNR), is transcribed from at least two promoters depending on growth conditions. Two transcripts (short and long) are translated from two ...

Hydrogen Sulfide Generated by L-Cysteine Desulfhydrase Acts Upstream of Nitric Oxide to Modulate Abscisic Acid-Dependent Stomatal Closure
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2014)
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a well-studied regulator of stomatal movement. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a small signaling gas molecule involved in key physiological processes in mammals, has been recently reported as a new component ...
