Overproduction, purification, and characterization of nanosized polyphosphate bodies from Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002

Abstract Background Inorganic polyphosphate bodies (PPB) have recently been linked to a variety of functions in mammalian cells. To improve the yield of PPB from Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 and characterize its form, in this study, a recombinant plasmid containing a polyphosphate kinase (ppk) gene wa...
