Influence of cobalamin scarcity on diatom molecular physiology and identification of a cobalamin acquisition protein

Diatoms are responsible for ∼40% of marine primary production and are key players in global carbon cycling. There is mounting evidence that diatom growth is influenced by cobalamin (vitamin B12) availability. This cobalt-containing micronutrient is only produced by some bacteria and archaea but is r...
