Experimental sample (cell line and/or tissue):Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
Description:To verify the existence of the respective μ-proteins in vivo, we selected five genes as examples to which a FLAG tag sequence was added and re-introduced them into Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. These were the previously annotated gene ssr1169, two newly defined genes norf1 and norf4, as well as nsiR6 (nitrogen stress-induced RNA 6) and hliR1 (high light-inducible RNA 1), which originally were considered non-coding.
Subcellular location:NA
Function:We conclude that the observed induction of norf1 in response to shifts from light exposure to darkness is under transcriptional control.
