Photophobotaxis of single‐celled and filamentous cyanobacteria
LED illumination from below induces central accumulation of cyanobacterial species. Abstract Phototaxis refers to an organism's movement toward a light source, while photophobotaxis involves movement into illuminated regions. Although phototaxis in cyanobacteria has been widely studied, photophobotaxis has been investigated in only a few species.

Proton gradients during salt adaptation of synechococcus [PDF]
AbstractThe ability of cells to energize their membranes during salt‐adaptation as measured by ΔpH was studied using the electron spin resonance (ESR) spin probe technique. Salt‐adaptated cells have the following features: an increased stability of ΔpH across the cytoplasmic membrane and a significantely lower rate of ΔpH formation across the thylakoid

Advances in large DNA fragment assembly for microbial cell factory engineering
Abstract The efficient, rapid, and reliable assembly of DNA fragments is essential for advancing metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. With the rapid advancement of DNA synthesis and assembly technologies, the scale of DNA assembly has expanded from single genes to metabolic pathways and even genomes.

Primary productivity coupled to oxic methane production in coastal waters of southern China
Abstract Oxic methane (CH4) production (OMP) occurs in diverse oxygenated surface waters worldwide. However, phytoplankton‐driven OMP in natural marine environments remains poorly documented. During a research cruise in the highly productive southern East China Sea, we measured OMP by incubating phytoplankton‐rich surface waters and found that CH4 ...

Physiological and biochemical microcystin-RR toxicity to the Synechococcus elongatus
Freshwater Microcystis may form dense blooms in eutrophic lakes. It is known to produce a family of related cyclic hepatopeptides (microcystins, MC) that constitute a threat to aquatic ecosystems.

Chromatic Adaptation in Marine Synechococcus Strains [PDF]
ABSTRACT Characterization of two genetically distinct groups of marine Synechococcus sp. strains shows that one, but not the other, increases its phycourobilin/phycoerythrobilin chromophore ratio when growing in blue light.
