“…The major P class in the case of C. echinulata was phopsphatidyl-inositol followed by phosphatidic acid ( Table 5). The fact that PI was found in higher proportions than the other P classes is in accordance with the relative proportions reported in another Mucorales, namely, Absidia corymbifera [51]. On the other hand, in the case of M. ramanniana, the major lipid class was phosphatidyl-choline followed by PI (Table 5), results also reported for other filamentous fungi [34,36,52,53].…”

Several strains of Zygomycetes cultivated on glycerol produced mycelia rich in lipids containing higher amounts of neutral lipids (NL) than glycolipids plus sphingolipids and phospholipids (P), while biosynthesis of P in Mortierella ramanniana, Mucor sp., and Cunninghamella echinulata occurred though NL accumulation process was in progress. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) concentration gradually decreased in all lipid fractions of M. ramanniana during growth. In contrast, in C. echinulata concentration of both linoleic and γ-linolenic acids increased with time, especially in P. Taking for granted that the main function of PUFA is associated to their participation in mycelial membranes, we could suppose that biosynthesis of these fatty acids is associated to mycelial growth. However, this is accurate only for some Zygomycetes, e.g., M. ramanniana. On the contrary, PUFA biosynthesis in C. echinulata persists after growth cessation, suggesting that in this species biosynthetic ability is not a strictly growth-associated process. Phosphatidyl-inositol and phosphatidyl-choline were the major P classes in C. echinulata and M. ramanniana, respectively. In M. ramanniana, a decrease of PUFA concentration was noticed even when mycelia were incubated in low temperature (conditions that normally favor PUFA biosynthesis), indicating that PUFA biosynthesis in this fungus is associated to primary metabolism.

“…Diphosphadidylglycerol (DPG) usually accounting for 2-5% of PLs, is a fairly constant fungal component. However, in the Zygomecete Absidia corymbifera, the analysis of PLs indicated small PC quantities and higher levels of DPG (Batrakov et al 2004). Phosphatidylglycerol, the characteristic phospholipid class of chloroplasts, appeared to be between 3% and 13% in many oleaginous fungi (Cerv 1993).…”

Lipids from yeasts and fungi: physiology, production and analytical considerations

et al. 2018

The last years there has been a significant rise in the number of publications in the international literature that deal with the production of lipids by microbial sources (the 'single cell oils; SCOs' that are produced by the so-called 'oleaginous' micro-organisms). In the first part of the present review article, a general overview of the oleaginous micro-organisms (mostly yeasts, algae and fungi) and their potential upon the production of SCOs is presented. Thereafter, physiological and kinetic events related with the production of, mostly, yeast and fungal lipids when sugars and related substrates like polysaccharides, glycerol, etc. (the de novo lipid accumulation process) or hydrophobic substrates like oils and fats (the ex novo lipid accumulation process) were employed as microbial carbon sources, are presented and critically discussed. Considerations related with the degradation of storage lipid that had been previously accumulated inside the cells, are also presented. The interplay of the synthesis of yeast and fungal lipids with other intracellular (i.e. endopolysaccharides) or extracellular (i.e. citric acid) secondary metabolites synthesized is also presented. Finally, aspects related with the lipid extraction and lipidome analysis of the oleaginous micro-organisms are presented and critically discussed.
