Quantifying gliding forces of filamentous cyanobacteria by self-buckling [PDF]
Filamentous cyanobacteria are one of the oldest and today still most abundant lifeforms on earth, with manifold implications in ecology and economics. Their flexible filaments, often several hundred cells long, exhibit gliding motility in contact with solid surfaces. The underlying force generating mechanism is not yet understood.

Robustness of clocks to input noise [PDF]
To estimate the time, many organisms, ranging from cyanobacteria to animals, employ a circadian clock which is based on a limit-cycle oscillator that can tick autonomously with a nearly 24h period. Yet, a limit-cycle oscillator is not essential for knowing the time, as exemplified by bacteria that possess an 'hourglass': a system that when forced by an

Dating the cyanobacterial ancestor of the chloroplast [PDF]
Cyanobacteria have played a pivotal role in the history of life on Earth being the first organism to carry out oxygenic photosynthesis, which changed atmospheric chemistry and allowed the evolution of Eukarya.

Cyanobacteria evolved the oxygenic photosynthesis to generate organic matter from CO2 and sunlight, and they were responsible for the production of oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere. This made them a model for photosynthetic organisms, since they are easier to study than higher plants.

A schematic illustration of the cyanobacteria‐based biohybrid platform for photodynamic cancer therapy enhanced PDT. The platform continuously outputs O2 (to alleviate tumor hypoxia) and 1O2 (for tumor treatment), achieving improved photodynamic immunotherapy. Abstract The interdisciplinary development of synthetic biology and material sciences propels
