Real-time observation of clickable cyanopeptide synthesis in bloom-forming cyanobacteria Microcystis and Planktothrix

ABSTRACT: In this study time-lapse experiments have been performed using pulsed feeding of non-natural amino acids (non-AAs) in order to observe the build up or decline of azide- or alkyne-modified (clickable) microcystins (MCs) or anabaenopetins (APs) in M. aeruginosa and P. agardhii. Clickable MCs or APs have been subsequently labeled via Copper-catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition (CuAAC) with ALEXA Fluor 488 (A488) and visualized using confocal microscopy analysis.
