Night peaking oscillatory genes of <i>Cyanothece</i> 51142.

<p>Panels (a)-(c) show the genes that are involved in NADH dehydrogenase, NADH quinone reductase and terminal oxidase of oxidative phosophorylation pathway, peaking at dusk or prior to the onset of respiration phase. Panels (d)-(g) represent the genes that participate in the nitrogen fixation mechanism, such as ferrous iron transport, translational initiation, nitrogen fixing activity and nitrogen regulatory protein. Panels (h)-(j) show the genes that take part in RNA polymerase sigma factors, cyanophycin and phycobilisomes degradation. Panels (k)-(n) represent the genes that are involved in biogenesis of ribosomes and RNA metabolism, such as ribosomal proteins, poly(A) polymerase and RNA helicase.
