Abstract:

Using oligonucleotide probes deduced from a conserved re-gion of amino
acids of SOD (superoxide dismutase) proteins, one SOD gene was detected
in the cyanobacterium, Tolypothrix bys-soidea, isolated from the exposed
rock surface of Sun temple, Konark. Amplification of specific genes of
the genomic DNA and sequencing of the PCR product yielded a sodB gene of
292 bp size. Southern hybridization confirmed the presence of a single
sodB gene in T. byssoidea.
