Extraction and Quantification of Alkanes in Cyanobacteria
Many species of cyanobacteria accumulate alkanes in their cells. It has been reported that these cyanobacteria accumulate mainly 15 long carbon chain alkane, pentadecane (C15H32), or/and 17 long chain alkane, heptadecane (C17H36).

Genome-wide identification of heat shock proteins (Hsps) and Hsp interactors in rice: Hsp70s as a case study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Heat shock proteins (Hsps) perform a fundamental role in protecting plants against abiotic stresses. Although researchers have made great efforts on the functional analysis of individual family members, Hsps have not been fully characterized ...

Nitrate Uptake in the Halotolerant Cyanobacterium Aphanothece halophytica is energy-dependent driven by ΔpH [PDF]
The energetics of nitrate uptake by intact cells of the halotolerant cyanobacterium Aphanothece halophytica were investigated. Nitrate uptake was inhibited by various protonophores suggesting the coupling of nitrate uptake to the proton motive force.

Cyanobacterial life at low O 2 : community genomics and function reveal metabolic versatility and extremely low diversity in a Great Lakes sinkhole mat [PDF]
Cyanobacteria are renowned as the mediators of Earth’s oxygenation. However, little is known about the cyanobacterial communities that flourished under the low‐O 2 conditions that characterized most of their evolutionary history.

Organic compatible solutes of halotolerant and halophilic microorganisms [PDF]
從苗栗通宵鹽山取得的粗鹽結晶中純化出十八株能生長在4.0 M高鹽的菌株。由16S rDNA序列的分析,確認這十八菌株均為極端高鹽太古生物,其中呈紅色菌落的HLR1~6這六株菌均屬於Haloarcula屬,而十二株淺紅色菌落的HLO1~6及白色菌落的HLW1~6屬於Natrinema屬。這十二株Natrinema屬的菌株均為長桿狀細胞,皆具有觸酶及氧化酶的活性,可以利用色胺酸、檸檬酸和葡萄糖,但都不能分解澱粉、明膠、脂質及卵磷脂,和Natrinema屬的菌株之16S rDNA相似度在97~99 %之間 ...
