I had suggested a similar experiment in a blog post back in the day (June 19, 2013): http://tanaiscience.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/ethanol-production-using-heterocyst.html

Glad to see it worked and that my prediction for better ethanol production in the heterocysts wasn't too crazy after all. In any case, using cyanobacteria to produce biofuels might need rates many times higher for it to become of any use at all. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4364286/

Well done! All the best, Tanai
