DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.00645
Abstract: Thraustochytrium is a marine protist that can accumulate a large amount of very long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLCPUFA) in triacylglycerols (TAG). How these freshly synthesized VLCPUFAs are channeled into TAG remains unknown. In this… read more here.
