Despite their crucial evolutionary and environmental roles, the study of these organisms has lagged behind other model organisms. This paper presents preliminary results on our ongoing research to unravel the biological interactions occurring within cyanobacteria. We develop an analysis framework that leverages recently developed bioinformatics and machine learning tools, such as genome-wide sequence matching based annotation, gene ontology analysis, cluster analysis and dynamic Bayesian network. Together, these tools allow us to overcome the lack of knowledge of less well-studied organisms, and reveal interesting relationships among their biological processes. Experiments on the Cyanothece bacterium demonstrate the practicability and usefulness of our approach. rv:
