Microalgae accumulate starch and lipid as storage metabolites under nutrient depletion,
which can be used as sustainable feedstock for biorefinery. Omics analysis coupled with …

Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) is an essential ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid for human
health. Currently, high-quality EPA production is largely dependent on the extraction of fish …

It is well known that polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in Schizochytrium sp. are mainly
synthesized via the polyketide synthase (PKS) pathway. However, the specific mechanism of …

Background Chromochloris zofingiensis, an oleaginous microalga, is a promising feedstock
for the co-production of triacylglycerol (TAG)-based biodiesel and the high-value product …

Burgeoning demand for carotenoids from natural resources has urged to explore the
promising metabolic engineering strategy to improve algal systems. However, existing …

High DHA production cost caused by low DHA titer and productivity of the current
Schizochytrium strains is a bottleneck for its application in competition with traditional fish-oil …

Background As a potential source of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), Schizochytrium sp.
has been widely used in industry for PUFA production. Polyketide synthase (PKS) cluster is …

Chromochloris zofingiensis is a potential source of natural astaxanthin; however, its rapid
growth and astaxanthin enrichment cannot be achieved simultaneously. This study …

Rhizosphere microorganisms can help plants absorb nutrients, coordinate their growth, and
improve their environmental adaptability. Coumarin can act as a signaling molecule that …

Metabolic engineering has been hailed as a promising tool to impart oil productivity in fast-
growing microalgae, thereby generating industry-suitable strains. However, complex …
