Abstract:
In the context of other research cyanobacterial DNA sequences were obtained from genomic clones selected from libraries at random. Sequences from Synechococcus PCC 6301, Calothrix PCC 7601 and Calothrix D253 are now available from the GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ databases (accession number Z47089 to Z47128, Z47129 to Z47149 and Z47150 to Z47197, respectively) and have been searched for similarity to known sequences. Thirty-one putative new genes (encoding putative products with at least 40% identity over at least 50 amino acids, or the converse) are listed along with one sequence from Synechococcus PCC 6301 that had been isolated previously.
