Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular genetics and genomic analysis of scytonemin biosynthesis in Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133
TL;DR: This study obtained a scytonemin-deficient mutant of the cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 by random transposon insertion into open reading frame NpR1273, and revealed an 18-gene cluster, which is likely to be biosynthetic precursors of the sunscreen.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparative genomics approach to understanding the biosynthesis of the sunscreen scytonemin in cyanobacteria
Tanya Soule,Tanya Soule,Kendra Palmer,Qunjie Gao,Ruth M. Potrafka,Valerie Stout,Ferran Garcia-Pichel +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that scytonemin biosynthetic genes are highly conserved among evolutionarily diverse strains, likely include more genes than previously determined, and are predicted to involve compartmentalization of the biosynthesis pathway in the cell, an unusual trait for prokaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene Expression Patterns Associated with the Biosynthesis of the Sunscreen Scytonemin in Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 in Response to UVA Radiation
TL;DR: All 18 genes in the 18-gene region associated with scytonemin biosynthesis in the cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme are induced by UVA irradiation, with relative transcription levels that generally peak after 48 h of continuous UVA exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Archaeal populations in biological soil crusts from arid lands in North America
Tanya Soule,Tanya Soule,Ian Anderson,Shannon L. Johnson,Scott T. Bates,Scott T. Bates,Ferran Garcia-Pichel +6 more
TL;DR: Archaea are common and abundant members of biological soil crust communities across large-scale biogeographic provinces of arid North America, but diversity was very restricted and some phylotypes were widespread, while others were typical of Southern desert areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the juvenile green turtle (Chelonia mydas) microbiome throughout an ontogenetic shift from pelagic to neritic habitats
James T. Price,Frank V. Paladino,Margaret M. Lamont,Blair E. Witherington,Scott T. Bates,Tanya Soule +5 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to characterize the cloacal microbiome of green turtles in the context of their ontogenetic shifts, which could provide valuable insight into the origins of their gut bacteria and how the microbial community supports their shift to herbivory.
