Over-Expression of a Phycocyanin-Interferon Fusion and Differential Cleaving Efficiency in Cyanobacteria (Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803). [PDF]

Biotechnol Bioeng
ABSTRACT Recombinant protein expression in heterologous biological systems is an expanding field in synthetic biology. Photosynthetic organisms have the potential to provide an efficient low‐cost platform for recombinant protein production because they require minimal growth nutrients and are less susceptible to zoonotic and other contaminants ...

Differences in photosystem II activity and carbon allocation during photomixotrophic growth in distinct wild-type strains of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. [PDF]

Plant J
SUMMARY The regulation of photosynthetic electron transport during photomixotrophic growth in cyanobacteria remains incompletely understood. In this study, we characterized four wild‐type strains (WT 1–4) of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and observed distinct strain‐specific differences in photosystem II (PSII) function under photomixotrophic conditions ...
