We try to let cyanbacteria lived in the desert to produce bacteria cellulose through transferring seven genes of cellulose synthase in Acetobacter xylinum to cyanobacteria from desert and PCC6803. This kind of bacterial cellulose is characterized by high purity, strength, and high water holding ability. We hope it can improve the moisture content of desert soils!
We have successfully demonstrated that our bacterial cellulose genes modules can be normally expressed and translated in Cyanbacteria populations. The colony PCR confirms that our expression vector has been successfully integrated into the cyanobacterial genome, and the fluorescent staining experiment proved that our cyanobacteria successfully synthesized the bacterial cellulose.
