Photokinesis of Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
Motile cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 cells show photomovement with respect to the light stimulus. Under lateral irradiation, Synechocystis displays a phototactic gliding movement toward the light source by a twodimensional random biased walk. Under vertical irradiation, Synechocystis decreased the frequency of mean vectorial gliding speed dependent on the applied fluence rate, where...
متن کاملThioredoxin peroxidase in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.
The amino acid sequence deduced from the open reading frame designated sll0755 in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 is similar to the amino acid sequences of thioredoxin peroxidases from other organisms. In the present study, we found that a recombinant SLL0755 protein that was expressed in Escherichia coli was able to reduce H2O2 and tertiary butyl hydroperoxide with thioredoxin from E. coli as the e...
متن کاملIron reduction by the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.
Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 uptakes iron using a reductive mechanism, similar to that exhibited by many other microalgae. Various bio-electrochemical technologies have made use of this reductive cellular capacity, but there is still a lack of fundamental understanding of cellular reduction rates under different conditions. This study used electrochemical techniques to further investigate the red...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of arsenolipids by the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
Although methylated arsenic and arsenosugars have been verified in various freshwater organisms, lipidsoluble arsenic compounds have not been identified. Here, we report investigations with the model organism cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 wild type andDarsM (arsenic(III) S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferase) mutant strain, which lacks the enzymes for arsenic methylation cultured i...
متن کاملRole of mrgA in peroxide and light stress in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.
In the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, the mrgA gene is part of the PerR regulon that is upregulated during peroxide stress. We determined that an DeltamrgA mutant was highly sensitive to low peroxide levels and that the mutant upregulated a gene cluster (sll1722-26) that encoded enzymes involved with exopolymeric substance (EPS) production. We made mutants in this EPS cl...
