The Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Genome Encodes Up to Four 2-Phosphoglycolate Phosphatases

Photorespiratory phosphoglycolate (2PG) metabolism is essential for cyanobacteria, algae, and plants. The first enzyme of the pathway, 2PG phosphatase (PGPase), is known from plants and algae but was scarcely investigated in cyanobacteria. In silico analysis revealed four candidate genes (slr0458, s...
