Multiple Photolyases Protect the Marine Cyanobacterium Synechococcus from Ultraviolet Radiation

Marine cyanobacteria depend on light for photosynthesis, restricting their growth to the photic zone. The upper part of this layer is exposed to strong UV radiation (UVR), a DNA mutagen that can harm these microorganisms. To thrive in UVR-rich waters, marine cyanobacteria employ photoprotection stra...
