Abstract excerpt

The genome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (hereafter, Synechocystis) contains an aqpZ gene (slr2057) which encodes an aquaporin (SsAqpZ), a membrane channel protein that might play a role in osmotic water transport and therefore the growth of Synechocystis. Structural characterization of SsAqpZ by protein sequence analysis and homology modelling revealed that it was more similar to bacterial...
