Overexpression of a diacylglycerol acyltransferase gene in Phaeodactylum tricornutum directs carbon towards lipid biosynthesis

Under nutrient deplete conditions, diatoms accumulate between 15% to 25% of their dry weight as lipids, primarily as triacylglycerols (TAGs). As in most eukaryotes, these organisms produce TAGs via the acyl‐CoA dependent Kennedy pathway. The last step in this pathway is catalyzed by diacylglycerol a...
