Molecular structure of various microalgal polyamines. (A) The polyamines commonly found in various microalgae; (B) Special long-chain polyamines present in diatoms. The thick red line in the chemical structure represents the aminopropyl groups while the fine black line represents the aminobutyl or aminopentyl groups. Dap, diaminopropane; Put, putrescine; Cad, cadaverine; NSpd, nor-spermidine; Spd, spermidine; NSpm, nor-spermine; Spm, spermine; TSpm, thermospermine; LCPAs, long-chain polyamines.
