Abstract excerpt
During cultivation under storage conditions with BG11 medium containing acetate as a carbon source, Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 accumulated poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) up to 10% (w/w) of the cell dry weight. Our analysis of the complete Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 genome sequence, which had recently beco...
