Characterization of Dunaliella salina strains by flow cytometry: a new approach to select carotenoid hyperproducing strains [PDF]
In the present work the characterization of different strains of Dunaliella salina from established cell culture collections and various isolates from solar saltworks located in the Canary Island, as well as one mutant, was carried out in order to assess

Potential of CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Engineering for Biofuel Production From Economically Relevant Algae
The worldwide energy demand continues to rise, while reliance on fossil fuels remains unsustainable due to global warming, declining reserves and rising oil prices. This has intensified the search for renewable alternatives. Among these, microscopic algae have emerged as a promising feedstock for third‐generation biofuels.

Studies on the growth of the marine microalga Dunaliella salina (Teodoresco) [PDF]
The present paper reports on the growth pattern of Dunaliella salina cells cultured in different salinities and also in stressed conditions on exposure to mutagens (UV and PEG). The cultures were maintained in different salinities viz., 20, 25, 30, 35,

The Dunaliella salina organelle genomes: large sequences, inflated with intronic and intergenic DNA [PDF]
Background Dunaliella salina Teodoresco, a unicellular, halophilic green alga belonging to the Chlorophyceae, is among the most industrially important microalgae. This is because D. salina can produce massive amounts of β-carotene, which can be collected

5‐Thiohistidine N‐Acetyltransferase from Proteiniphilum Saccharofermentans
Proteiniphilum saccharofermentans, a Gram‐negative facultative anaerobe, produces an N‐acetyl transferase (5THNAT) that acetylates 5‐thiohistidine using acetyl‐CoA. This reaction competes with OvoC‐mediated Nπ‐methylation of the same substrate.
