Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen control in cyanobacteria.
TL;DR: Nitrogen control in cyanobacteria is mediated by NtcA, a transcriptional regulator which belongs to the CAP (the catabolite gene activator or cyclic AMP [cAMP] receptor protein) family and is therefore different from the well-characterized Ntr system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compartmentalized function through cell differentiation in filamentous cyanobacteria
Enrique Flores,Antonia Herrero +1 more
TL;DR: This Review addresses cyanob bacterial intercellular communication, the supracellular structure of the cyanobacterial filament and the basic principles that govern the process of heterocyst differentiation.

Assimilatory Nitrogen Metabolism and Its Regulation
Enrique Flores,Antonia Herrero +1 more
TL;DR: A major theme for future research is how information about the N status of the cell is sensed and transduced to the protein(s) effecting regulation of gene expression, as paths of N assimilation in cyanobacteria are induced upon ammonium deprivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen assimilation and nitrogen control in cyanobacteria
Enrique Flores,Antonia Herrero +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the expression of many nitrogen assimilation genes is subjected to regulation being activated by the nitrogen control transcription factor NtcA, which is autoregulatory and whose activity appears to be influenced by 2-oxoglutarate and the signal transduction protein PII.
