Measurement of Lipid Droplet Accumulation Kinetics in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Using Seoul-Fluor [PDF]
Energies, 2013 Alternative energy resources have become an important issue due to the limited stocks of petroleum-based fuel. Microalgae, a source of renewable biodiesel, use solar light to convert CO2 into lipid droplets (LDs).

Mechanistic and genetic basis of single-strand templated repair at Cas12a-induced DNA breaks in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 Single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides are often used as templates for DNA repair during genome editing. Here the authors show that, unlike in animals, single-strand templated DNA repair in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii relies on the alternative end-joining ...

Phototaxis Assay for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Bio-Protocol, 2017 Phototaxis is a behavior in which organisms move toward or away from the light source (positive or negative phototaxis, respectively). It is crucial for phototrophic microorganisms to inhabit under proper light conditions for phototaxis.

Selenoprotein: Potential Player in Redox Regulation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Antioxidants, 2022 Selenium (Se) is an essential micro-element for many organisms, including Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and is required in trace amounts. It is obtained from the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec, U), genetically encoded by the UGA codon.

Chemoresponses of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1978 Cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been found to respond to chemicals in two ways: chemokinesis and chemotaxis. Several amino acids, fatty acids, and inorganic salts can stimulate these responses.
