Species code:	SYNS3
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Chroococcales; Synechococcus (TaxID: 64471) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	This coastal cyanobacterium was isolated from the edge of the California Current in 1993 at 95m depth after nitrate enrichment and low light incubation. It possesses an ability to adapt to light quality (blue to green light ratios) not seen in open ocean Synechococcus strains such as WH8102 (SYNPX), as well as a larger capacity to transport, store, use and export metals (especially copper and iron). As might be expected from its environment which is comparatively rich in phosphate, it lacks a phosphate sensor- response regulator system and the number of proteins involved in phosphate metabolism is reduced compared to WH8102. The availability of this sequence now permits a comparison between open ocean and coastal water-adapted Synechococcus strains.
