| Research Abstract |
It is important to enhance photosynthetic efficiency in photosynthetic microorganisms for maintening atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and harvesting solar energy to human activities. We have tried to introduce phosphate translocator into cyanobacterial cells in order to reduce the metabolism to the final products such as glycogen. Now we are investigating the characteristics of the transformants.
