Application of proteomics has made a profound impact on the cyanobacterial research. It has not only provided a global identification of expressed proteins in cyanobacterial cells …
Using a phylogenomic approach, we have identified and subclassified a new family of carotenoid-binding proteins. These proteins have sequence homology to the N-terminal …
A new co-cultivation technology is presented that converts greenhouse gasses, CH 4 and CO 2, into microbial biomass. The methanotrophic bacterium, Methylomicrobium …
Unicellular nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria (UCYN) are abundant members of phytoplankton communities in a wide range of marine environments, including those with rapidly changing …

Hot spring associated phototrophic microbial mats are purely microbial communities, in which phototrophic bacteria function as primary producers and thus shape the community …
Photobiologically synthesized hydrogen (H2) gas is carbon neutral to produce and clean to combust, making it an ideal biofuel. Cyanothece sp. strain ATCC 51142 is a cyanobacterium …
The mechanisms by which microbes interact in communities remain poorly understood. Here, we interrogated specific interactions between photoautotrophic and heterotrophic …
Although numerous bacteria dwelling in the sunlit layer of oceans can exploit solar energy, cyanobacteria are the only ones to perform oxygenic photosynthesis and to produce organic …
