Hopanoid lipids may facilitate aerobic nitrogen fixation in the ocean. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cyanobacterial diazotrophs are considered to be the most important source of fixed N2 in the open ocean. Biological N2 fixation is catalyzed by the extremely O2-sensitive nitrogenase enzyme.

Mechanics and Resonance of the Cyanobacterial Circadian Oscillator [PDF]

open access: yesBioSystems, vol. 109, pp. 137-140, 2012, 2012
Recent experiments elucidated the structure and function of the cyanobacterial circadian oscillator, which is driven by sunlight intensity variation and therefore by Earth's rotation. It is known that cyanobacteria appeared about 3.5 billion years ago and that Earth's rotational speed is continuously decreasing because of tidal friction.

A fluid dynamics multidimensional model of biofilm growth: stability, influence of environment and sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
In this article, we study in details the fluid dynamics system proposed in Clarelli et al (2013) to model the formation of cyanobacteria biofilms. After analyzing the linear stability of the unique non trivial equilibrium of the system, we introduce in the model the influence of light and temperature, which are two important factors for the development

The Challenge of the Yuck Factor in Public Acceptance of Engineered Living Materials

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, EarlyView.
This Perspective provides an examination of the drivers of disgust reactions to biotechnologies and how these are likely to arise toward engineered living materials, which incorporate living cells. To promote social acceptance of such materials, disgust reactions can be minimized though the design and development of such materials, science ...

Sustainable Hydrogen Production, a Review of Methods, Types, Applications, Challenges, and Future Perspectives

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates sustainable hydrogen production methods integrating solar, wind, and biomass sources. It highlights electrolysis as the central green hydrogen pathway and contrasts renewable and industrial uses. Color‐coded hydrogen types depict the diversity in production technologies, emphasizing clean energy transitions and ...

Bioactivity of Benthic and Picoplanktonic Estuarine Cyanobacteria on Growth of Photoautotrophs: Inhibition versus Stimulation

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2011
Understanding potential biochemical interactions and effects among cyanobacteria and other organisms is one of the main keys to a better knowledge of microbial population structuring and dynamics.

Global metabolic rewiring for improved CO2 fixation and chemical production in cyanobacteria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Cyanobacteria have attracted much attention as hosts to recycle CO2 into valuable chemicals. Although cyanobacteria have been engineered to produce various compounds, production efficiencies are too low for commercialization.
