An integrative approach for modeling and simulation of Heterocyst pattern formation in Cyanobacteria strands [PDF]
A comprehensive approach to cellular differentiation in cyanobacteria is developed. To this aim, the process of heterocyst cell formation is studied under a systems biology point of view.

Cyanotoxins and Other Bioactive Compounds from the Pasteur Cultures of Cyanobacteria (PCC)
In tribute to the bicentenary of the birth of Louis Pasteur, this report focuses on cyanotoxins, other natural products and bioactive compounds of cyanobacteria, a phylum of Gram-negative bacteria capable of carrying out oxygenic photosynthesis.

A Review of Microalgae- and Cyanobacteria-Based Biodegradation of Organic Pollutants
This review proposes a new bioremediation method based on the diverse functionalities of algae. A greenway for cleansing wastewater is more ecologically friendly and environmentally sustainable than prior methods with other bacteria.

Discharge of recalcitrant azo dyes to the environment poses a serious threat to environmental health. However certain microorganisms in nature have developed their survival strategies by degrading these toxic dyes. Cyanobacteria are one such prokaryotic,

Structural mechanics of filamentous cyanobacteria [PDF]
Filamentous cyanobacteria, forming long strands of connected cells, are one of the earliest and most successful forms of life on Earth. They exhibit self-organised behaviour, forming large-scale patterns in structures like biomats and stromatolites. The mechanical properties of these rigid structures have contributed to their biological success and are

Cyanobacteria stand out among phytoplankton when they form massive blooms and produce toxins. Because cyanotoxin genes date to the origin of metazoans, the hypothesis that cyanotoxins function as a defense against herbivory is still debated.

Timing the evolution of antioxidant enzymes in cyanobacteria
The ancestors of cyanobacteria generated Earth’s first biogenic molecular oxygen, but how they dealt with oxidative stress remains unconstrained. Here we investigate when superoxide dismutase enzymes (SODs) capable of removing superoxide free radicals ...
