Abstract excerpt
High affinity transport of manganese ions (Mn2+) in cyanobacteria is carried by an ABC-type transporter, encoded by the mntCAB operon, which is derepressed by the deficiency of Mn2+. Transcription of this operon is negatively regulated by the two-component system consisting of a sensory histidine kinase ManS and DNA-binding response regulator ManR. In this study, we examined two Synechocystis mutants, defective...
