Interactions of Phototropism and Gravitropism in Cyanobacteria

This paper shows that cyanobacteria sense gravity and light directionally, adjusting pigment distribution in response to external forces and light sources.

Cyanobacteria form a procarboxysome-like structure in response to high CO2

The paper tracks redox states in cyanobacteria under different CO2 conditions, finding that procarboxysome-like structures form in high CO2, suggesting a more permeable shell is advantageous.

Molecular insights into phycobilisome assembly pathway reveal crystalline bodies in cyanobacteria

The paper investigates PBS assembly in cyanobacteria by knocking out apcE, revealing crystalline bodies as intermediates in the process.

High-density CRISPRi screens reveal adaptive transcriptional gradients in cyanobacteria

This study uses CRISPRi screens to identify transcriptional gradients in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 that improve growth under cold monochromatic light conditions.

Calcite Precipitation by a Nitrogen-Fixing Cyanobacterium

This study identifies two mechanisms of MICP in Anabaena, showing how mechanical stress and heterocyst-calcite contact drive calcium carbonate precipitation.

Machine Learning Models for Segmentation and Classification of Cyanobacterial Cells

The paper develops ML models for segmenting and classifying cyanobacterial cells, showing improved performance over traditional methods in dense colonies and artifact resistance.

Multi-generational analysis and manipulation of chromosomes in a polyploid cyanobacterium

The paper studies chromosome dynamics in a polyploid cyanobacterium across generations using time-lapse microscopy and CRISPR interference, showing resilience to chromosome disruption.
