Abstract: Septal junctions are cell-cell connections that mediate intercellular communication in filamentous cyanobacteria. The septal peptidoglycan is perforated by dozens of 20 nm-wide nanopores, through which these proteinaceous structures traverse, physically connecting adjacent cells. On each cytoplasmic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.00392-23
Abstract: Filamentous cyanobacteria exhibit some of the greatest developmental complexity observed in the prokaryotic domain. This includes the ability to differentiate nitrogen-fixing cells known as heterocysts, spore-like akinetes, and hormogonia, which are specialized motile filaments capable… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.959468
Abstract: The Anabaena genus is a model organism of filamentous cyanobacteria whose vegetative cells can differentiate under nitrogen-limited conditions into a type of cell called a heterocyst. These heterocysts lose the possibility to divide and are… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life11080758
Abstract: Tolyporphins A–R are unusual tetrapyrrole macrocycles produced by the non-axenic filamentous cyanobacterium HT-58-2. A putative biosynthetic gene cluster for biosynthesis of tolyporphins (here termed BGC-1) was previously identified in the genome of HT-58-2. Here, homology… read more here.
