DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiotec.2017.04.001

Abstract: Cyanophycin, also known as cyanophycin granule polypeptide (CGP), is a non-ribosomal polypeptide consisting of aspartic acid as a backbone with arginine and lysine as the side chains. CGP has soluble (sCGP) and insoluble (iCGP) forms… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2216547120

Abstract: Cyanophycin is a bacterial polymer mainly used for nitrogen storage. It is composed of a peptide backbone of L-aspartate residues with L-arginines attached to their side chains through isopeptide bonds. Cyanophycin is degraded in two… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology"

DOI: 10.1099/ijsem.0.002867

Abstract: Strain CECT 5091T, an aerobic, marine, Gram-reaction- and Gram-stain-negative, chemoheterotrophic bacterium was isolated from oysters harvested off the Spanish Mediterranean coast. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence placed the strain within the genus Ruegeria,… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Applied and Environmental Microbiology"

DOI: 10.1128/aem.01298-18

Abstract: We clarified the elusive biological function of cyanophycin in the nondiazotrophic cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Cyanophycin is a dynamic carbon/nitrogen storage polymer (multi-arginyl-l-polyaspartate) that is conditionally present in most cyanobacteria and a few heterotrophic… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology"

DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.896863

Abstract: The production of biodegradable polymers as coproducts of other commercially relevant plant components can be a sustainable strategy to decrease the carbon footprint and increase the commercial value of a plant. The biodegradable polymer cyanophycin… read more here.
