Enhanced triacylglycerol (TAG) and protein accumulation in transgenic diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana with altered photosynthetic pigmentation
O. Gaidarenko, D. P. Yee, M. Hildebrand
This study evaluates two transgenic diatom lines with altered photosynthetic pigments, finding that VDL2 overexpression increases TAG and protein accumulation while reducing light dissipation, and LTL knockdown increases TAG but reduces protein.
