Extraction and Quantification of GABA and Glutamate from Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Bio-Protocol, 2016
GABA (γ-amino butyric acid) is a biologically active four carbon non-protein amino acid found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Glutamate is a five carbon α-amino acid which can be converted to GABA catalyzed by the enzyme glutamate decarboxylase.

slr2103, a homolog of type-2 diacylglycerol acyltransferase genes, for plastoquinone-related neutral lipid synthesis and NaCl-stress acclimatization in a cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
A cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, contains a lipid with triacylglycerol-like TLC mobility but its identity and physiological roles remain unknown. Here, on ESI-positive LC-MS2 analysis, it is shown that the triacylglycerol-like lipid (lipid X)

Coupling Nitrogenous Organic Wastewater Treatment and Biorefinery via N‐Cycling Bacterium

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The vast reservoir of nitrogenous organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters can serve as untapped carbon‐nitrogen resources. This study employs the newly discovered Paracoccus sp. ZQW‐1 as a versatile chassis to simultaneously achieve N‐methylpyrrolidone (NMP) wastewater depuration and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthesis.

Probing Synechocystis-arsenic interactions through extracellular nanowires

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Microbial nanowires (MNWs) can play an important role in the transformation and mobility of toxic metals/metalloids in environment. The potential role of MNWs in cell-arsenic (As) interactions has not been reported in microorganisms and thus we explored ...

Ultrafast Structural Dynamics of BlsA, a Photoreceptor from the Pathogenic Bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]

, 2014
Acinetobacter baumannii is an important human pathogen that can form biofilms and persist under harsh environmental conditions. Biofilm formation and virulence are modulated by blue light, which is thought to be regulated by a BLUF protein, BlsA.

Elektrochemischer Schutz von Cyanobakterienzellen vor molekularem Sauerstoff ermöglicht nachhaltige PhotoH2‐Produktion

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Photosynthetische Mikroorganismen können zur lichtgetriebenen H2‐Entwicklung genutzt werden. Eine Einschränkung ist jedoch die damit verbundene Bildung von molekularem Sauerstoff als Nebenprodukt der Photosynthese, der die Aktivität des Biokatalysators für die H2‐Produktion, d. h. die Hydrogenase, inhibiert.

Exploring native genetic elements as plug-in tools for synthetic biology in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Microbial Cell Factories, 2018
Background The unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 has been widely used as a photoautotrophic host for synthetic biology studies. However, as a green chassis to capture CO2 for biotechnological applications, the genetic toolbox for ...

The endoribonucleolytic N-terminal half of Escherichia coli RNase E is evolutionarily conserved in Synechocystis sp. and other bacteria but not the C-terminal half, which is sufficient for degradosome assembly [PDF]

, 1998
Escherichia coli RNase E, an essential single-stranded specific endoribonuclease, is required for both ribosomal RNA processing and the rapid degradation of mRNA.

Electrochemical Protection of Cyanobacterial Cells from Molecular Oxygen Enables Sustained PhotoH2 Production

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Photosynthetic microorganisms can be used to perform H2 evolution driven by light. However, a crucial limitationlies in the associated generation of molecular oxygen as a by‐product of photosynthesis, which compromises the activity of the biocatalyst performing H2 production, i.e., the hydrogenase.
