TL;DR: This work considers tissue-like P systems with states associated with the links between cells, controlling the passage of objects across the links, and investigates the computing power of such devices for the case of using--in a sequential manner--antiport rules of small weights.

TL;DR: The isolation and characterization of the phytoene synthase gene from the green microalga Chlorella zofingiensis, involved in the first step of the carotenoids biosynthetic pathway, have been performed and it has been shown that the deduced protein forms a cluster with the rest of thephy toene synthases (PSY) of the chlorophycean microalgae studied, being very closely related to PSY of plants.
Abstract: The isolation and characterization of the phytoene synthase gene from the green microalga Chlorella zofingiensis (CzPSY), involved in the first step of the carotenoids biosynthetic pathway, have been performed. CzPSY gene encodes a polypeptide of 420 amino acids. A single copy of CzPSY has been found in C. zofingiensis by Southern blot analysis. Heterologous genetic complementation in Escherichia coli showed the ability of the predicted protein to catalyze the condensation of two molecules of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP) to form phytoene. Phylogenetic analysis has shown that the deduced protein forms a cluster with the rest of the phytoene synthases (PSY) of the chlorophycean microalgae studied, being very closely related to PSY of plants. This new isolated gene has been adequately inserted in a vector and expressed in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The overexpression of CzPSY in C. reinhardtii, by nuclear transformation, has led to an increase in the corresponding CzPSY transcript level as well as in the content of the carotenoids violaxanthin and lutein which were 2.0- and 2.2-fold higher than in untransformed cells. This is an example of manipulation of the carotenogenic pathway in eukaryotic microalgae, which can open up the possibility of enhancing the productivity of commercial carotenoids by molecular engineering.
