Method of increasing production of polyunsaturated fatty acids Omega -3 in microalgae

摘要

This revelation presents, in one respect, a method for producing enriched lipids for EPA, comprising modifying a microalga e to increase the expression of pfa1 and /or pfa3, and cultivating the modified microalga e under conditions allowing the expression of pfa1 and /or pfa3, under which I have read them Enriched penises for EPA are produced. A recombinant microalga e is also shown in which pfa1 and /or pfa3 is overexploited. It has been shown in this document that such recombinant microalgae produce very favourable fatty acid lipid profiles (e.G. Increased EPA levels, increased EPA ratio:dha, decreased levels of DPA n -6, etc.).
