The inorganic carbon (CO2, HCO3-) transport in β-cyanobacteria is well characterized. It is also understood that there is scope for improvement in the native carbon transport. We are employing genetic engineering and synthetic biology based approaches for enhancing carbon transport in a couple of cyanobacterial strains. Besides we are also trying to decipher the inorganic carbon transport in α-cyanobacterial strains.
