As a means to improve carbon uptake in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain
PCC6803, we engineered strains to contain additional inducible copies of the endogenous …

Background Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 is an attractive organism as a feedstock and for
photoautotrophic production of biofuels and biochemicals due to its fast growth and ability to …

Exposure of cells of cyanobacteria (blue–green algae) grown under high-CO2 conditions to
inorganic C-limitation induces transcription of particular genes and expression of high …

Cyanobacteria possess a highly effective CO2-concentrating mechanism that elevates CO2
concentrations around the primary carboxylase, Rubisco (ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate …

The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 possesses two CO 2 uptake
systems and two HCO 3− transporters. We transformed a mutant impaired in CO 2 uptake …

Bicarbonate transporters play essential roles in pH homeostasis in mammals and
photosynthesis in aquatic photoautotrophs. A number of bicarbonate transporters have been …

Cyanobacteria, blue-green algae, are the most abundant autotrophs in aquatic
environments and form the base of the food chain by fixing carbon and nitrogen into cellular …

The cmpABCD operon of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain PCC7942, which is
transcribed specifically under CO2-limited growth conditions, encodes an ATP-binding …

Cyanobacteria are generally assumed to be effective competitors at low CO2 levels because
of their efficient CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM), and yet how bloom-forming …

Cyanobacterial HCO3-transporters BCT1, SbtA and BicA are important components of
cyanobacterial CO2-concentration mechanisms. They also show potential in applications …
