Molecular characterization of squalene synthase from the green microalga Botryococcus braunii, race B.

Archives of biochemistry and biophysics - 15 Jan 2000

Okada S, Devarenne T P, Chappell J

Abstract excerpt

The green microalga Botryococcus braunii produces large amounts of liquid hydrocarbons and is classified into three races, depending on the type of the hydrocarbon produced. The B race produces two types of triterpenoid hydrocarbons, squalene and botryococcene, both of which are putative condensation products of farnesyl diphosphate. In an attempt to better understand the regulation involved in the production of...
