In natural environments, photosynthetic organisms adjust their metabolism to cope with the fluctuating availability of combined nitrogen sources, a growth-limiting factor. For acclimation, the dynamic degradation/synthesis of tetrapyrrolic pigments, as well as of the amino acid arginine, is ...
This project aims to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the stable golden-yellow phenotype and enhanced protein accumulation in an Auxenochlorella pyrenoidosa mutant (CX41) generated by ARTP mutagenesis. Through comparative analysis between the wild-type (FACHB-9) and mutant s...
