Algal lipid metabolism fascinates both scientists and entrepreneurs due to the large diversity
of fatty acyl structures that algae produce. Algae have therefore long been studied as …

Lipid remodeling, defined herein as post‐synthetic structural modifications of membrane
lipids, play crucial roles in regulating the physicochemical properties of cellular membranes …

The green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a leading unicellular model for dissecting
biological processes in photosynthetic eukaryotes. However, its usefulness has been limited …

Diatoms constitute a major phylum of phytoplankton biodiversity in ocean water and
freshwater ecosystems. They are known to respond to some chemical variations of the …

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

Thraustochytrids are unicellular heterotrophic marine protists of the Stramenopile group,
often considered as non-photosynthetic microalgae. They have been isolated from a wide …

To reveal the molecular mechanisms of oleaginousness in microalgae, transcriptomic and
lipidomic dynamics of the oleaginous microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica IMET1 under …

Nitrogen (N) is a key nutrient that limits global primary productivity; hence, N-use efficiency is
of compelling interest in agriculture and aquaculture. We used Chlamydomonas reinhardtii …

Microalgae of the genus Nannochloropsis are capable of accumulating triacylglycerols
(TAGs) when exposed to nutrient limitation (in particular, nitrogen [N]) and are therefore …

Fatty acids (FAs) and lipids are essential—not only as membrane constituents but also for
growth and development. In plants and algae, FAs are synthesized in plastids and to a large …
