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

Introduction

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].
