Identification and Functional Characterization of Adenosine Deaminase in Mucor circinelloides: A Novel Potential Regulator of Nitrogen Utilization and Lipid Biosynthesis

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme distributed in a wide variety of organisms that cleaves adenosine into inosine. Since inosine plays an important role in nitrogen metabolism, ADA may have a critical function in the regulation of fatty acid ...

Strategic Development of Aurantiochytrium sp. Mutants With Superior Oxidative Stress Tolerance and Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Activity for Enhanced DHA Production Through Plasma Mutagenesis Coupled With Chemical Screening

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Thraustochytrids, such as Aurantiochytrium and Schizochytrium, have been shown as a promising sustainable alternative to fish oil due to its ability to accumulate a high level of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from its total fatty acids. However, the low DHA
