6
Cyanobacteria (Synechocystis)

• Photosynthetic bacteria with multi-layered
  membranes
• Photo-autotrophic or photo-heterotrophic growth
• Ancestor of plant chloroplast

7
Photosynthesis of Synechocystis

• Thylakoid membrane contains many phycobilisomes
  on its surface
• Phycobilisomes contain accessory pigments
  absorbing light for photosynthesis

8
Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

• Model organism of higher plants
• Plant-like oxygenic photosynthesis
• High transformation efficiency
• Light signal transduction mutants
• Undergoing systems biology pilot study
• Genome-to-Life project of DOE, USA
• The first complete genome sequence among
  photosynthetic bacteria (DNA Research 1996)

Genome size 3,573,470 bp, GC content
47.7 3167 proteins (92 two-component regulatory
proteins)
9
SynechoNET

• Provides predicted protein interaction network of
  Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
• Integrates four complementary and redundant
  public protein-protein interaction (PPI)
  databases
• Generates prediction reliability based on
  redundancy
• Provides predicted membrane protein information
• trans-membrane topology and domain information
