The pigments are vital parts of photosynthetic machinery in algae and exhibit a myriad applications as nutraceuticals, cosmetics, colorants, which find huge many industires, including the paint industry paper industry. antimicrobial, antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer potential microalgal contribute towards their varied industrial applications. In this study, (Fucoxanthin, C-phycocya...

A cold-regulated operon, rbpA1-rpsU, encodes an RNA-binding protein and a ribosomal protein in Anabaena variabilis M3. The level of expression of this gene cluster was about ten times higher at temperatures below 30 degrees C than at 38 degrees C. To study the role of the RbpA1 protein in vivo, we constructed insertional disruptants of rbpA1. These strains were totally devoid of RbpA1 protein b...
