TL;DR: A protein-modulating role for microcystin within the producing cell is suggested, which represents a new addition to the catalogue of functions that have been discussed for microbial secondary metabolites.
Non‐canonical localization of RubisCO under high‐light conditions in the toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa PCC7806
Tino Barchewitz,Arthur Guljamow,Sven Meissner,Stefan Timm,Manja Henneberg,Otto Baumann,Martin Hagemann,Elke Dittmann +7 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the binding of microcystin to RubisCO promotes its membrane association and enables an extreme versatility of the enzyme.

Microcystin production revisited: conjugate formation makes a major contribution
TL;DR: The MC content is reassessed by using two immunological detection techniques that allow a parallel quantification of MC in the methanolic extracts and the residual pellet fraction that contains high molecular weight proteins to suggest strain-specific differences in the amount of MC conjugate formation.
Structural and functional insights into the unique CBS-CP12 fusion protein family in cyanobacteria.

TL;DR: Structural insights into CP12 are provided by investigating an uncharacterized CP12 fusion protein, CBS–CP12, which is widespread among cyanobacteria, and revealed that the domain fusion led to the formation of a hexameric protein.
