Assessment on the oil accumulation by knockdown of triacylglycerol lipase in the oleaginous diatom Fistulifera solaris

Abstract: Microalgae are promising producers of biofuel due to higher accumulation of triacylglycerol (TAG). However, further improvement of the lipid metabolism is critical for feasible application of microalgae in industrial production of biofuel. Suppression of lipid degradation pathways is a promising way to remarkably increase the lipid production in model diatoms. In this study, we established an antisense-based knockdown (KD) technique in the marine oleaginous diatom, Fistulifera solaris. This species has a capab… Show more

“…Indeed, the fatty acid profile of P. tricornutum TAG is mainly composed of medium and long-chain fatty acids (C14:0, C16:0 and C16:1) [ 55 ] which is in line with GX type lipases that could degrade them. For patatin-like phospholipases, even though their oxyanion hole motif resembles a GGGX type, some homologs from different microalgae have been shown to hydrolyze TAG with long to very long chain fatty acids [ 30 , 43 , 45 , 56 ].…”

“…In these studies, a knockdown of the lipase gene led to an increase in lipid accumulation while slightly affecting the cell density reached at the stationary phase, either by enhancing (+17%), or by decreasing it (−6 to −10%). Additional studies have been conducted on other diatoms with the knockdown of a CGI-58 homolog in Thalassiosira pseudonana [ 42 ] and of a tgl1 homolog in Fistulifera solaris [ 43 ], both showing an increase in lipid accumulation while not affecting division rate [ 42 ] or even enhancing it [ 43 ]. This inactivation approach therefore allows to obtain strains displaying a high lipid productivity.…”
