Abstract excerpt

Uptake of 16 amino acids by the filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 was characterized with regard to kinetic parameters of transport, intracellular accumulation of the transported amino acids, and sensitivity of the transport process to energy metabolism in...
