Probing the in vivo biosynthesis of scytonemin, a cyanobacterial ultraviolet radiation sunscreen, through small scale stable isotope incubation studies and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry
Scytonemin is a dimeric indole phenolic pigment found in the sheath of many cyanobacteria. This pigment absorbs UV radiation protecting subtending cyanobacterial cells from harmful effects. Based on scytonemin’s unique chemical structure, the pathway to its biosynthesis is uncertain, thus motivating...
