BMAA Inhibits Nitrogen Fixation in the Cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC 7120
Cyanobacteria produce a range of secondary metabolites, one being the neurotoxic non-protein amino acid β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA), proposed to be a causative agent of human neurodegeneration. As for most cyanotoxins, the function of BMAA in cyanobacteria is unknown. Here, we examined the effects of BMAA on the physiology of the filamentous nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC 71...
متن کاملIdentification of sesquiterpene synthases from Nostoc punctiforme PCC 73102 and Nostoc sp. strain PCC 7120.
Cyanobacteria are a rich source of natural products and are known to produce terpenoids. These bacteria are the major source of the musty-smelling terpenes geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol, which are found in many natural water supplies; however, no terpene synthases have been characterized from these organisms to date. Here, we describe the characterization of three sesquiterpene synthases ident...

متن کاملThe iron superoxide dismutase from the filamentous cyanobacterium Nostoc PCC 7120. Localization, overexpression, and biochemical characterization.
The nitrogen-fixing filamentous cyanobacterium Nostoc PCC 7120 (formerly named Anabaena PCC 7120) possesses two genes for superoxide dismutase, a unique membrane-associated manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and a soluble iron superoxide dismutase (FeSOD). A phylogenetic analysis of FeSODs shows that cyanobacterial enzymes form a well separated cluster with filamentous species found in one ...
متن کاملA lipoxygenase with linoleate diol synthase activity from Nostoc sp. PCC 7120.
The dioxygenation of PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) in plants is mainly catalysed by members of the LOX (lipoxygenase) enzyme family. LOX products may be further metabolized, and are known as signalling substances in plant development and in responses to wounding and pathogen attack. In contrast with the situation in eukaryotes, information on the relevance of lipid peroxide metabolism in ...
