Genome-wide comparative analysis of metacaspases in unicellular and filamentous cyanobacteria
BACKGROUND: Cyanobacteria are an ancient group of photoautotrophic prokaryotes with wide variations in genome size and ecological habitat. Metacaspases (MCAs) are cysteine proteinases that have sequence homology to caspases and play essential roles in programmed cell death (PCD). MCAs have been iden...
