Abstract
The disclosure pertains to a method for the production of triacylglycerides (TAGs or Triacylglyerols) and fatty acids by the recombinant expression of a Δ11 fatty acid desaturase in protists.
Claims15
(canceled)
A method for producing triacylglycerides and/or fatty acids, expressing a recombinant fatty acid Δ11 desaturase in a protist, wherein said recombinant fatty acid Δ11 desaturase comprises or consists of a sequence having at least 50% identity with the sequence SEQ ID NO:
- 1.
A nucleic acid encoding a fatty acid Δ11 desaturase comprising or consisting of a sequence having at least 50% identity with the sequence SEQ ID NO:
- 1, said nucleic acid being codon-optimized for the expression of said fatty acid Δ11 desaturase in a protist.
