Characterization of function of the GlgA2 glycogen/starch synthase in Cyanobacterium sp. Clg1 highlights convergent evolution of glycogen metabolism into starch granule aggregation

Kadouche, Derifa Ducatez, Mathieu Cenci, Ugo

At variance with the starch-accumulating plants and most of the glycogen-accumulating cyanobacteria, Cyanobacterium sp. CLg1 synthesizes both glycogen and starch. We now report the selection of a starchless mutant of this cyanobacterium that retains wild-type amounts of glycogen. Unlike other mutants of this type found in plants and...
