Cyanobacterial studies examine cellular structure during nitrogen starvation Date: November 15, 2017 Source: Oak Ridge National Laboratory Summary: Researchers are using neutrons to study what ...

Scientists have shown how cell division in a type of bacteria known as cyanobacteria is controlled by the same kind of circadian rhythms that govern human sleep patterns. Previous studies have ...

Figure 1. Types of cell death according to the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (upper panel; Galluzzi et al., 2015) and proposed for cyanobacteria (lower panel). Cells exposed to extreme injury ...

Since the biosynthesis efficiency for PHB in cyanobacteria is quite low therefore, in order to increase the production, PHB biosynthetic gene is introduced from bacterium Ralstonia eutropha into ...

Living cell: schematic illustration of the solar cell proposed in this study, depicting the three light-harvesting mechanisms: (1) photosynthesis of cyanobacteria cells; (2) hot-electron injection ...

Introverts take heart: When cells, like some people, get too squished, they can go into defense mode, even shutting down photosynthesis. In a study published today, a team at the University of ...

Since then, researchers have learned a lot about the cell biology underlying these rhythms. But it would take another quarter of a century to connect those same genes to an ability stretching over a ...
