The biosynthesis of bilins, tetrapyrroles essential for light harvesting and sensing, is performed by specific enzymes (FDBRs). In Galdieria sulphuraria, both phycobiliprotein types bind phycocyanobilin, despite lacking the canonical synthesizing gene PCYA. Instead, PEBA and PEBB are encoded, producing phycoerythrobilin, proposed to be later isomerized

Subtidal algal community structure in kelp beds around the Cape Peninsula (Western Cape, South Africa) [PDF]
The subtidal understorey seaweed communities were studied along a coastal distance of 104 km around the Cape Peninsula, which is situated in an overlap region between two marine provinces and characterized by a considerable temperature gradient. Sampling

tRNA functional signatures classify plastids as late-branching cyanobacteria. [PDF]
BackgroundEukaryotes acquired the trait of oxygenic photosynthesis through endosymbiosis of the cyanobacterial progenitor of plastid organelles. Despite recent advances in the phylogenomics of Cyanobacteria, the phylogenetic root of plastids remains ...

ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

Nutritional Composition of Seven Selected Seaweed Available in Bangladesh ABSTRACT This study systematically reviewed macronutrients, micronutrients, and potential health risks associated with heavy metals in seaweed. The selected seaweed species contained considerable protein (approximately 15–20 g/100 g dry weight), ash (approximately 15–28 g/100 g),

Bacterial Communities Associated With Crustose Coralline Algae Are Host‐Specific
Fifteen Indo‐Pacific crustose coralline algae (CCA) species surface microbial communities were characterised with 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and are distinct. The CCA surface microbiome primarily differentiate by algal host species, but core bacterial communities additionally correlated to host phylogeny.
