A Novel Bifunctional Wax Ester Synthase Involved in Early Triacylglycerol Accumulation in Unicellular Green Microalga Haematococcus pluvialis Under High Light Stress

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The bulk of neutral lipids, including astaxanthin esters and triacylglycerols (TAGs), are accumulated in the green microalga Haematococcus pluvialis under high light (HL) stress. In this study, a novel bifunctional wax ester synthase (WS) gene was cloned
