Cyanobacteria have evolved specialized proteins and pathways to efficiently carry out photosynthesis and biological nitrogen (N2)-fixation (BNF). To deepen our understanding of these processes, we performed proteomic analysis of the unicellular cyanobacterium Crocosphaera subtropica ATCC 51142 grown with and without nitrate under 12-hour light-dark cycles.
