Abstract
This study presents the complete nucleotide sequence of Anabaena sp. ATCC 33047 (Anabaena CA), a filamentous, nitrogen-fixing marine cyanobacterium, which under salt stress conditions accumulates sucrose internally. The elucidation of the genome will contribute to the understanding of cyanobacterial diversity.
Highlights
This study presents the complete nucleotide sequence of Anabaena sp
Cyanobacteria are an ancient group of diverse photosynthetic microorganisms that encompass a wide range of morphologies [1, 2]
Sucrose osmolytes accumulated by Anabaena spp. are a potential raw material for bioethanol
Summary
This study presents the complete nucleotide sequence of Anabaena sp. ATCC 33047 (Anabaena CA), a filamentous, nitrogenfixing marine cyanobacterium, which under salt stress conditions accumulates sucrose internally. Cyanobacteria (formerly blue-green algae) are an ancient group of diverse photosynthetic microorganisms that encompass a wide range of morphologies [1, 2]. The extraordinary adaptive ability of these organisms has allowed them to survive in a variety of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. They can be found in soil environments, fresh and salt water systems, even extreme habitats such as hot springs and soda lakes [1, 2].
