Characterization of carotenogenesis genes in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2012

Masukawa Hajime, Mochimaru Mari, Takaichi Shinichi

Abstract excerpt

Cyanobacteria produce many kinds of carotenoids for light harvesting and light protection in photosynthesis. To elucidate the biosynthetic pathways of carotenoids in Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 (also known as Nostoc sp. PCC 7120), we have produced gene-disruption mutants lacking selected proposed carotenoid biosynthetic enzymes. Here we describe the construction of mutants by triparental mating. A cargo plasmid,...
