The fine-tuning of NPQ in diatoms relies on the regulation of both xanthophyll cycle enzymes
Diatoms possess an efficient mechanism to dissipate photons as heat in conditions of excess light, which is visualized as the Non-Photochemical Quenching of chlorophyll a fluorescence (NPQ).

Lipid catabolism in microalgae [PDF]
SummaryLipid degradation processes are important in microalgae because survival and growth of microalgal cells under fluctuating environmental conditions require permanent remodeling or turnover of membrane lipids as well as rapid mobilization of storage lipids.
