“…This subversion of host metabolism is facilitated by the expression of cyanophage genes that appear to have a bacterial origin, so-called auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) (Breitbart et al, 2007). These include genes involved in photosynthesis (Mann et al, 2003;Lindell et al, 2005;Fridman et al, 2017) and photoprotection (Lindell et al, 2004;Millard et al, 2004;Sullivan et al, 2005;Roitman et al, 2018), pigment biosynthesis (Dammeyer et al, 2008), central carbon metabolism (Millard et al, 2009;Thompson et al, 2011), nucleotide biosynthesis (Enav et al, 2014), phosphorus metabolism (Sullivan et al, 2010;Zeng and Chisholm, 2012;Lin et al, 2016) and other stress responses (Sullivan et al, 2010;Crummett et al, 2016).…”
