A polyketide synthase HglEA, but not HglE2, synthesizes heterocyst specific glycolipids in Anabaena sp. PCC 7120

Heterocysts are the specialized cells for nitrogen fixation in some filamentous cyanobacteria. To protect the oxygen labile nitrogen fixing enzyme, nitrogenase, heterocysts keep their inner environment microoxic by developing layers of barrier on the outside of their outer membranes. Heterocyst spec...
