Synechocystis Mutants Lacking Genes Potentially Involved in Carotenoid Metabolism

abstract: Like most other phototrophic organisms the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 produces carotenoids. These pigments often bind to proteins and assume various functions in light harvesting, protection from reactive oxygen species (ROS) and protein stabilization. One hypothesis was tha...
