Bacterial Predation on Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Predatory bacteria gained interest in the last 20 years. Nevertheless, only a few species are well characterized. The endobiotic predator <i>Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus</i> invades its prey to consume it from the inside, whereas <i>Myxococcus xanthus</i> hunts as a whole group to overcome its prey.

The Toxins of Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Cyanobacteria, formerly called ”blue-green algae“, are simple, primitive photosynthetic microorganism wide occurrence in fresh, brackish and salt waters. Forty different genera ofCyanobacteriaare known and many of them are producers of potent toxins responsible for a wide array of human illnesses, aquatic mammal and bird morbidity and mortality, and ...

Light and carbon: Synthetic biology toward new cyanobacteria-based living biomaterials
Cyanobacteria are ideal candidates to use in developing carbon neutral and carbon negative technologies; they are efficient photosynthesizers and amenable to genetic manipulation.

Regulatory sRNAs in Cyanobacteria [PDF]
As the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, small RNAs (sRNAs) play important roles in every domain of life in organisms. It has been discovered gradually that bacteria possess multiple means of gene regulation using RNAs.

Heterotrophy among Cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria have been studied in recent decades to investigate the principle mechanisms of plant-type oxygenic photosynthesis, as they are the inventors of this process, and their cultivation and research is much easier compared to land plants. Nevertheless, many cyanobacterial strains possess the capacity for at least some forms of heterotrophic ...

Cyanobacteria bloom prevention and control and salvage disposal integrated management system [PDF]
Cyanobacteria are large single-cell prokaryotes that can undergo oxygen-producing photosynthesis. However, if the cyanobacteria are contaminated by nitrogen, phosphorus and other elements, cyanobacteria will cause the phenomenon of “water bloom” in the ...

Polyphosphate: A Multifunctional Metabolite in Cyanobacteria and Algae
Polyphosphate (polyP), a polymer of orthophosphate (PO4 3-) of varying lengths, has been identified in all kingdoms of life. It can serve as a source of chemical bond energy (phosphoanhydride bond) that may have been used by biological systems prior to ...
