Abstract
Acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase from the unicellular diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum (PtLPCAT1) is involved in triacylglycerol and galactoglycerolipid synthesis and enhances eicosapentaenoic acid accumulation in recombinant oleaginous yeast Keywords: CRISPR/Cas9; eicosapentaenoic acid; LPCAT; Phaeodactylum tricornutum; Yarrowia lipolytica EN CRISPR/Cas9 eicosapentaenoic acid LPCAT Phaeodactylum tricornutum Yarrowia lipolytica 238 240 3 01/31/23 20230201 NES 230201 Dietary supplementation of omega-3 very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFAs), particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20: 5 SP 5,8,11,14,17 sp ) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22: 6 SP 4,7,10,13,16,19 sp ), is well known to have diverse health benefits. Recently, the biochemical properties of one I P. tricornutum i LPCAT (PtLPCAT1) were reported and it can esterify a 18: 3-, 18: 4- or 20: 4-CoA (n-3) moiety to lysoPC I in vitro i , the later acyl being available for further desaturation to synthesize EPA, contrasting with plant LPCATs (Polo'nska I et al i ., [2]).
