Species code:	ANASP
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Nostocales; Nostocaceae; Nostoc (TaxID: 103690) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Anabaena is a filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium. Heterocysts are metabolically highly active cells that have the capacity for the fixation of dinitrogen. Under conditions of nitrogen deficiency, heterocysts differentiate from vegetative cells at semi-regular intervals along the filaments, generating a pattern.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: No Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins: 1
Statistics:	Number of ANASP entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 6070 (654 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 5416 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
