Abstract excerpt
Nostoc sp. strain ATCC 29133 (PCC 73102; Nostoc 29133) is a symbiotically-competent, facultatively heterotrophic, diazotrophic cyanobacterium with the capacity to differentiate specialized cells such as heterocysts, akinetes and hormogonial filaments. We have optimized several methods for physiological and molecular genetic analysis of Nostoc 29133. By use of a Tn5 derivative, Tn5-1063 (Km(r)Bm(r)Sm(r)),...
