Delta-5 elongase knockout reduces DHA and TAG synthesis coupled with an increase of heat sensitivity in a marine diatom
2024-04-23
Abstract excerpt
Recent global marine lipidomic analysis reveals a strong relationship in the ocean between temperature and phytoplanktonic abundance of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are essential for human nutrition and primarily from phytoplankton in marine food webs. In phytoplanktonic organisms, EPA may play a major role i...
