Expression of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase increases non-polar lipid accumulation in nannochloropsis oceanica

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Christian Su00fcdfeld from the Wageningen University, Bioprocess Engineering, , have published the research: Expression of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase increases non-polar lipid accumulation in Nannochloropsis oceanica, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors report the overexpression of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) in N. oceanica during favorable growth conditions as a strategy to increase non-polar lipid content. This research has shown that DGAT overexpression can lead to substantially increased TAG contents of transgenic strains, consistent with the central role of the Kennedy pathway in glycerolipid metabolism. The aim of this study was to . . .
