This study overexpresses HMGR and SQE enzymes in diatoms to alter sterol profiles, showing differential accumulation of intermediates and end-point sterols in Phaeodactylum tricornutum.

The paper identifies a plastid antiporter in Thalassiosira pseudonana that shows differential transcript levels under elevated CO2, suggesting it could serve as a bioindicator of diatom resilience.

The paper uses transcriptomic data from marine diatoms to predict and classify environmental and physiological conditions using machine learning methods.

The paper compiles and analyzes transcriptome data from ten eukaryotic microalgae to create a public resource for molecular systems biology research.
