Oleaginous yeast as a component in fish feed [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractThis study investigates the replacement of vegetable oil (VO) in aquaculture feed for Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) with oil produced by the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces starkeyi grown in lignocellulose (wheat straw) hydrolysate. VO is extensively used to partially replace fish oil in aquaculture feed, which can be seen as non-sustainable.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Engineering triacylglycerol production from sugars in oleaginous yeasts
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2020 Oleaginous yeasts natively produce surplus triacylglycerol lipid and can be engineered for higher yield and productivity. Most enzymatic steps of triacylglycerol production are characterized, but key parts of the pathway remain unknown. This introduces uncertainty to metabolic engineering strategy and the upper limit of achievable lipid yield. Here, we
