has discovered a previously unknown gene that plays a key role in the coordination of the nitrogen and carbohydrate metabolism: with it, cyanobacteria indirectly regulate the growth of ...

When modern microbes use nitrogen in their metabolism, they use these two ... The researchers cultivated cyanobacteria under ...

With the electrochemical system, the cyanobacteria produced 173 µM NH 3 in 48 h, which is 21 times as much as was produced via background nitrogen metabolism. “Scaling of this approach is ...

54, No. 4 (Jul., 2009), pp. 1403-1411 (9 pages) This study investigated the bulk nitrogen isotopic composition and fractionation of marine and freshwater cyanobacteria growing at the expense of ...

Hepatotoxin biosynthesis and regulation in cyanobacteria—the putative involvement of nitrogen and iron homeostasis mechanisms ... Effects of inorganic N availability on algal photosynthesis and carbon ...

Chloroplasts, which carry out photosynthesis in all plants, evolved from symbiotic cyanobacteria that eventually became incorporated into their host cells in a process known as endosymbiosis. In the ...

In Frontiers in Microbiology, scientists show for the first time that Anabaena cyanobacteria ... partial pressure of nitrogen gas - 0.2 to 0.3 hPa - is too low for their metabolism.

Most organisms require nitrogen to produce biological molecules ... “and how it’s integrated with the rest of the cell’s metabolism.” Karen is a science journalism intern at The Scientist. Her PhD and ...

the bacterial activity associated with particles is expected to have indirect and delayed impact on the oceanic nitrogen cycle compared to that of cyanobacteria. These insights may be particularly ...

layered rock-like formations made by Cyanobacteria (one of the oldest bacteria). They hold ancient records from two-and-a-half billion years ago. The team analysed nitrogen cycling patterns within ...
