Manuscript Topics

Due to the accumulation of many research findings over the years, we now have considerable knowledge about the natural bioactive compounds produced by cyanobacteria and microalgae. However, the search for as yet unknown useful compounds and the exploration of their biosynthetic mechanisms is still actively ongoing. In cyanobacteria and microalgae, the regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis is involved in important physiological phenomena, including environmental stress responses and signal transduction. This is therefore an essential research topic for elucidating the fundamental life systems of these microorganisms. Genome mining, synthetic biology, and interdisciplinary research all play a major role in this endeavor.    
The aim of this special issue is to update the current knowledge in the field of research into natural bioactive products found in cyanobacteria and microalgae. Furthermore, we hope to provide a forum for new data and topics that will deepen our understanding of the identification, chemical characteristics, biosynthesis, activities, and useful applications of these products.

Keywords: cyanobacteria; algae; secondary metabolites; natural compounds; bioactivity; biosynthesis, genome mining, synthetic biology, multidisciplinary approach
