Nitrogen limitation-induced adaptive response and lipogenesis in the antarctic yeast rhodotorula mucilaginosa m94c9

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: By elucidating the proportion of carbon/nitrogen required for sustained growth and examining the temporal dynamics of LDs accumulation, the authors investigate the impact of nitrogen availability on lipogenesis. The authors assess the biotechnological potential of this red yeast as feedstock for oleochemical production by analyzing fatty_acid profiles and evaluating the conversion rate of TAGs to free fatty_acid ethyl esters. Most of the studies of R. mucilaginosa have focused on identifying the gene sequences of the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of carotenoids.
• Who: Miguel Rosas-Paz and colleagues from the Jiangxi Agricultural University . . .
