Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of aerobic metabolism and potent agents
that cause oxidative damage. In oxygenic photosynthetic organisms such as cyanobacteria …

Cyanobacteria are the dominant photosynthetic prokaryotes from an ecological, economical,
or evolutionary perspective, and depend on solar energy to conduct their normal life …

The ancestors of cyanobacteria generated Earth's first biogenic molecular oxygen, but how
they dealt with oxidative stress remains unconstrained. Here we investigate when …

The apparent increase in solar ultraviolet (UV) radiations on the Earth's surface, due to
continuous depletion or diminishing of the stratospheric ozone shield has triggered serious …

Oxidative stress is common consequence of abiotic stress in plants as well as cyanobacteria
caused by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), an inevitable product of respiration …

Phycobilisomes (PBS) are the major light-harvesting, protein–pigment complexes in
cyanobacteria and red algae. PBS absorb and transfer light energy to photosystem (PS) II as …

Lysine acetylation is a conserved regulatory posttranslational protein modification that is
performed by lysine acetyltransferases (KATs). By catalyzing the transfer of acetyl groups to …

Hydrogen (H 2) is a promising fuel in the context of climate neutral energy carriers and
photosynthesis-driven H 2-production is an interesting option relying mainly on sunlight and …

Flavodiiron proteins are known to have crucial and specific roles in photoprotection of
photosystems I and II in cyanobacteria. The filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium …

Cyanobacteria are photoautotrophic microorganisms present in almost all ecologically
niches on Earth. They exist as single-cell or filamentous forms and the latter often contain …
