The Nostoc–Gunnera symbiosis [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1992 summary Gunnera L. develops a complex and intimate symbiosis with N2‐fixing cyanobacteria of the genus Nostoc, which renders the plant independent of combined nitrogen. The Nostoc‐Gunnera symbiosis exhibits unique features compared to other cyanobacterial‐plant symbioses: it is for example the only one that involves a flowering plant (angiosperm), the ...

Further characterization of glycine-containing microcystins from the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica [PDF]
, 2015 Microcystins are hepatotoxic cyclic peptides produced by several cyanobacterial genera worldwide. In 2008, our research group identified eight new glycine-containing microcystin congeners in two hydro-terrestrial mat samples from the McMurdo Dry Valleys ...

NsrR1, a Nitrogen stress-repressed sRNA, contributes to the regulation of nblA in Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 [PDF]
, 2018 Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are currently considered as major post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression in bacteria. The interplay between sRNAs and transcription factors leads to complex regulatory networks in which both transcription factors

Biocatalytic synthesis of flavones and hydroxyl-small molecules by recombinant Escherichia coli cells expressing the cyanobacterial CYP110E1 gene [PDF]
, 2012 Background: Cyanobacteria possess several cytochrome P450s, but very little is known about their catalytic functions. CYP110 genes unique to cyanaobacteria are widely distributed in heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria including nitrogen-fixing genera Nostoc

Nostoc thermotolerans sp. nov., a soil-dwelling species of Nostoc (Cyanobacteria)
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2017 A filamentous, soil-dwelling cyanobacterial strain (9C-PST) was isolated from Mandsaur, Madhya Pradesh, India, and is described as a new species of the genus Nostoc. Extensive morphological and molecular characterization along with a thorough assessment of ecology was performed.

Presence and expression of hydrogenase specific C-terminal endopeptidases in cyanobacteria [PDF]
, 2003 BACKGROUND: Hydrogenases catalyze the simplest of all chemical reactions: the reduction of protons to molecular hydrogen or vice versa. Cyanobacteria can express an uptake, a bidirectional or both NiFe-hydrogenases.
