Single-Cell Measurements of Fixation and Intercellular Exchange of C and N in the Filaments of the Heterocyst-Forming Cyanobacterium <italic toggle="yes">Anabaena</italic> sp. Strain PCC 7120

ABSTRACT Under diazotrophic conditions, the model filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 develops a metabolic strategy based on the physical separation of the processes of oxygenic photosynthesis, in vegetative cells, and N2 fixation, in heterocysts. This strateg...
