Synechocystis assimilates glucose from its environment. (A) Growth of Synechocystis WT under autotrophic and mixotrophic (+g; 10 mM glucose) conditions in continuous light. Error bars represent the SD from three independent cultures, each measured in triplicate. Each growth experiment was repeated independently at least three times to ensure reproducibility. In the graph, the data of one growth experiment is shown. (B) Aliquots of the cultures were harvested, and the cell-free supernatant was analyzed via ¹H-NMR, showing that the cells consumed glucose within the first 6 d. The signal of the anomeric H-atom is shown.
