Cellular basis of B <sub>12</sub> uptake and remodelling in microalgae revealed using a novel bioassay

2026-08-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Vitamin B 12 , an essential micronutrient for many microalgae and humans, is synthesised only by certain prokaryotes. B 12 is a complex tetrapyrrole that can exist in many forms (vitamers), some more bioavailable than others. Some microalgae are able to interconvert, or remodel, different B 12 vitamers. As microalgae are important primary producers, it is crucial to understand how diverse micr...
