• The group 2 σ factor for RNA polymerase SigE plays important role in regulating central carbon metabolism in cyanobacteria. However, the regulation of SigE for these pathways at a proteome level remains unknown. Using a sigE‐deficient strain (ΔsigE) of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and quantitative proteomics, we found that SigE depletion induces differential protein expression for sugar catabolic pathways including glycolysis, oxidative pentose phosphate (OPP) pathway, and glycogen catabolism. Two glycogen debranching enzyme homologues Slr1857 and Slr0237 are found differentially expressed in ΔsigE. Glycogen determination indicated that Δslr0237 accumulated glycogen under photomixotrophic condition but was unable to utilize these reserves in the dark, whereas Δslr1857 accumulates and utilizes glycogen in a similar way as the WT strain does in the same condition. These results suggest that Slr0237 plays the major role as the glycogen debranching enzyme in Synechocystis.
