The international journeys and aliases of Synechococcus elongatus [PDF]

New Zealand Journal of Botany, 2018
ABSTRACT This perspective provides a historical account of the isolation and nomenclature of the cyanobacterial strains currently known as Synechococcus elongatus . The story focuses on an isolate from the San Francisco Bay area of California (Pasteur Culture Collection PCC ...

Genomic and Transcriptomic Insights into Salinity Tolerance-Based Niche Differentiation of Synechococcus Clades in Estuarine and Coastal Waters

mSystems, 2023
Cluster 5 Synechococcus is one of the most important primary producers on earth. However, ecotypes of this genus exhibit complex geographical distributions, and the genetic basis of niche partitioning is still not fully understood.

Spheroplasts of Synechococcus PCC 6301 [PDF]

Microbiology, 1984
SUMMARY: Of a number of osmotic stabilizers tested, 0.5 M-L-proline was the most suitable for the formation of spheroplasts of Synechococcus PCC 6301 with minimal loss of viability. However, even this stabilizer inhibited colony formation.

Recent advances in engineering fast-growing cyanobacterial species for enhanced CO2 fixation

Frontiers in Climate
Atmospheric CO2 removal (CDR) is a fundamentally endergonic process. Performing CDR or Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) at the gigatonne scale will produce a significant additional burden on the planet’s limited renewable energy ...

Lifestyle Evolution in Cyanobacterial Symbionts of Sponges

mBio, 2015
The “Candidatus Synechococcus spongiarum” group includes different clades of cyanobacteria with high 16S rRNA sequence identity (~99%) and is the most abundant and widespread cyanobacterial symbiont of marine sponges.

Intensive DNA Replication and Metabolism during the Lag Phase in Cyanobacteria. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Unlike bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, several species of freshwater cyanobacteria are known to contain multiple chromosomal copies per cell, at all stages of their cell cycle.

Photophysiological and photosynthetic complex changes during iron starvation in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

, 2013
Iron is an essential component in many protein complexes involved in photosynthesis, but environmental iron availability is often low as oxidized forms of iron are insoluble in water.

Adjustments to Photosystem Stoichiometry and Electron Transfer Proteins Are Key to the Remarkably Fast Growth of the Cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973

mBio, 2018
At the genome level, Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973 (Synechococcus 2973) is nearly identical to the model cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 (Synechococcus 7942) with only 55 single nucleotide differences separating the two strains ...

Functional and structural insights into cyanobacterial CO₂ concentrating mechanisms: from compartmentalization to regulation. [PDF]

Plant J
Significance Statement Life on Earth depends on photosynthetic CO2 fixation via the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle to form organic carbon. This process evolved first in cyanobacteria and was later conveyed to eukaryotes, giving rise to plastids in algae and plants. To cope with low atmospheric CO2 concentrations that developed over the course of evolution,
