Abstract excerpt
The role of the prqR gene in the regulation of the adaptive response of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 to the oxidative stress induced with methyl viologen (MV) was studied. For this, transcription activity of prqR and the genes, which may be involved in the control of resistance to MV, was determined by means of Northern blot hybridization in wild-type cells and in the MV-resistant Prq20 mutant...
