Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 is a filamentous cyanobacterium that can use inorganic compounds such as nitrate or ammonium as nitrogen sources. In the absence of combined nitrogen, it can fix N2 in differentiated cells called heterocysts.

The Incorporation and Metabolism of Glucose by Anabaena variabilis [PDF]
SUMMARY: The incorporation and metabolism of glucose by the blue-green alga Anabaena variabilis is described. Experiments with [14C]glucose indicated that this compound contributed up to 46 % of the total dry wt of organism. Respiratory studies with [I-14C] and [6-14C] showed that the pentose phosphate pathway was the major route of glucose ...

Cytochrome c 6-like protein as a putative donor of electrons to photosystem I in the cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC 7119 [PDF]
Most organisms performing oxygenic photosynthesis contain either cytochrome c 6 or plastocyanin, or both, to transfer electrons from cytochrome b 6-f to photosystem I. Even though plastocyanin has superseded cytochrome c 6 along evolution, plants contain

Abstract Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan, important components of biomass with a remarkable ability to synthesize a diverse array of bioactive compounds, some of which may have toxic effects on other organisms and ecosystems. In this study, filamentous cyanobacterial strains isolated predominantly from temperate European freshwaters (Aphanizomenon ...

Cyanobacterial Mn-catalase ‘KatB’: Molecular link between salinity and oxidative stress resistance
Catalases are ubiquitous enzymes that detoxify H2O2 in virtually all organisms exposed to oxygen. The filamentous, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium, Anabaena PCC 7120, shows the presence of 2 genes (katA and katB) that encode Mn-catalases. We have recently

Anaplerotic reactions in Anabaena cylindrica [PDF]
Anaplerotic reactions occur in heterocysts and vegetative cells of Anabaena cylindrica. This cyanobacterium possesses phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and malic enzyme, but no pyruvate carboxylase and isocitrate lyase. Heterocysts contain all the enzymes for the conversion of glucose 6‐phosphate to oxoglutarate and may not be dependent on a supply with ...

Model of intercellular functional coordination in Anabaena. Summary Diazotrophic cyanobacteria fix both atmospheric carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) into biomass, but the two assimilation pathways are not compatible. Species like Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 physically separate C and N assimilation in different cell types.

Low-dose alum application trialled as a management tool for internal nutrient loads in Lake Okaro, New Zealand [PDF]
Aluminium sulfate (alum) was applied to Lake Okaro, a eutrophic New Zealand lake with recurrent cyanobacterial blooms, to evaluate its suitability for reducing trophic status and bloom frequency.

ABSTRACT Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism leading to phenylalanine (Phe) accumulation and consequent neurological, neurocognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. Pegvaliase, a pegylated recombinant phenylalanine ammonia lyase that metabolizes Phe, effectively reduced blood Phe in phase III studies in the United States. This multicenter,

Dynamical magnetostructural properties of Anabaena ferredoxin [PDF]
A mixed quantum/classical investigation of the dynamical magnetostructural properties, that is, “magnetodynamics,” of oxidized Anabaena PCC7119 ferredoxin is carried out at room temperature in two distinct conformational states.
