A mechanism for slow release of biomagnified cyanobacterial neurotoxins and neurodegenerative disease in Guam

As root symbionts of cycad trees, cyanobacteria of the genus Nostoc produce β-methylamino-l-alanine (BMAA), a neurotoxic nonprotein amino acid. The biomagnification of BMAA through the Guam ecosystem fits a classic triangle of increasing concentrations of toxic compounds up the food chain. However,...
