Project description:Microcystis aeruginosa cells were treated with phosphorus repletion, depletion and starvation. Isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomic method was employed to explore to the effects of phosphorus limitation on Microcystis aeruginosa cells at the protein level. This investigation would contribute to the understanding of global cellular responses of Microcystis to phosphorus limitation and provide theoretical basis for deciding whether it is an effective way to control Microcystis blooms by phosphorus reduction.
Project description:What are the effects of Microcystis aeruginosa and cyanotoxin on the grass carp intestine? 16S rRNA sequencing is needed to analyze the gut microbiota.
Project description:This study was conducted in order to determine whether genome-integrated Microcystis aeruginosa Argonaute (MaAgo) and Argonaute-associated Cas4 family enzyme (MaACE1) were successfully expressed in Escherichia coli BW25113.
Project description:As an essential primary producer, cyanobacteria play an important role in the global cycle for both carbon and nitrogen in the ecosystems. Though the influence of nanoplastics on the carbon metabolism of cyanobacteria, especial Microcystis aeruginosa, a dominant species causing cyanobacterial blooms, is well studied, little is known about nanoplastics affecting the nitrogen metabolism.
