The Signal Transduction Protein PII Controls Ammonium, Nitrate and Urea Uptake in Cyanobacteria

The Signal Transduction Protein PII Controls Ammonium, Nitrate and Urea Uptake in Cyanobacteria

PII signal transduction proteins are widely spread among all domains of life where they regulate a multitude of carbon and nitrogen metabolism related processes. Non-diazotrophic cyanobacteria can utilize a high variety of organic and inorganic nitrogen sources. In recent years, several physiologica...
