The genetically regulated pattern of heterocyst formation in multicellular cyanobacteria
represents the simplest model to address how patterns emerge and are established, the …

The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 forms a periodic pattern of
nitrogen-fixing heterocysts when grown in the absence of combined nitrogen. PatA is …

Multicellular development requires the careful orchestration of gene expression to correctly
create and position specialized cells. In the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp …

Here, we report on the identification and characterization of a protein (A lr0267) named
HesF, found in the extracellular milieu of A nabaena sp. PCC 7120 grown diazotrophically …

When deprived of a combined-nitrogen source in the growth medium, the filamentous
cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 (Anabaena) can form heterocysts capable of …

Heterocyst development in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 depends on
both the global nitrogen control transcription factor NtcA and the cell differentiation …

Formation and maintenance of a periodic pattern of nitrogen‐fixing cells called heterocysts
by the filamentous cyanobacterium A nabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 is dependent on …

Abstract Background Anabaena (also Nostoc) sp. strain PCC7120, hereafter Anabaena, is a
cyanobacterium that fixes atmospheric N 2 in specialized cells called heterocysts …

PII is an important signal protein for regulation of nitrogen metabolism in bacteria and plants.
We constructed a mutant of glnB, encoding PII, in a heterocystous cyanobacterium …

The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 differentiates specialized
cells for nitrogen fixation called heterocysts upon limitation of combined nitrogen in the …
