Identification of a genomic region that complements a temperature-sensitive, high CO2-requiring mutant of the cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp. PCC7942.

Abstract excerpt

In a temperature-sensitive, high CO2-requiring mutant of Synechococcus sp. PCC7942, the ability to fix intracellularly accumulated inorganic carbon was severely impaired at non-permissive temperature (41 degrees C). In contrast, inorganic carbon uptake and ribulose-1.5-bisphosphate carboxylase activity in the mutant were comparable to the respective values obtained with the wild-type strain. The mutant was...
