The genome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 contains genes identified as menD and menE, homologs of Escherichia coli genes that code for 2-succinyl-6-hydroxyl-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate (SHCHC) synthase and O-succinylbenzoic acid-CoA ligase in the menaquinone biosynthetic
In cyanobacteria, Glu-244 and Tyr-246 of the Photosystem II (PS II) D1 protein are hydrogen bonded to two water molecules that are part of a hydrogen-bond network between the bicarbonate ligand to a non-heme iron and the cytosol. Ala substitutions were introduced in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 to
The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 possesses two leader peptidases, LepB1 (Sll0716) and LepB2 (Slr1377), responsible for the processing of signal peptide-containing proteins. Deletion of the gene for LepB1 results in an inability to grow photoautotrophically and an extreme light
Iron limitation has a strong impact on electron transport reactions of the unicellular fresh water cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 (thereafter referred to as S. elongatus). Among the various adaptational processes on different cellular levels, iron limitation induces a strongly
Photosystem II (PSII) of oxygen-evolving cyanobacteria, algae, and land plants mediates electron transfer from the Mn(4)Ca cluster to the plastoquinone pool. It is a dimeric supramolecular complex comprising more than 30 subunits per monomer, of which 16 are bitopic or peripheral,
The cytochrome b(6)f (Cyt b(6)f) complex in flowering plants contains nine conserved subunits, of which three, PetG, PetL, and PetN, are bitopic plastid-encoded low-molecular-weight proteins of largely unknown function. Homoplastomic knockout lines of the three genes have been generated in tobacco
Two collections of Arabidopsis GAL4 enhancer trap lines were screened for light-intensity dependent reporter gene activation. Line N9313 was isolated for its strong light-intensity regulation. The T-DNA element trapped distant enhancers of the SIG5 promoter, which drives expression of a sigma factor
Iron limitation is the major factor controlling phytoplankton growth in vast regions of the contemporary oceans. In this study, a combination of thermoluminescence (TL), chlorophyll fluorescence, and P700 absorbance measurements have been used to elucidate the effects of iron deficiency in the
