Restoration of the Functional nif Gene Cluster by Seven Excision and Two Inversion Events during Heterocyst Development in the Nitrogen-Fixing Cyanobacterium Calothrix sp. NIES-4101

K. Uesaka, M. Banba, S. Chiba, Y. Fujita

The paper identifies a complex recombination process involving seven excision and two inversion events that restores the fragmented nif gene cluster in Calothrix sp. NIES-4101 during heterocyst development.
