Comparative study of the different mechanisms for zinc ion stress sensing in two cyanobacterial strains, Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 and Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

In response to an increased level of Zn(2+), Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 expresses SmtA, a metallothionein-like metal-chelating protein, while Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 expresses ZiaA, a transporter of Zn(2+). The gene expression of these proteins is regulated by repressor protein, SmtB and ZiaR, re...
