Thraustochytrid Cell Factories for Producing Lipid Compounds

Trends in Biotechnology, 2021
Thraustochytrids can accumulate over 150 g/l biomass, containing up to 55% lipids, without any genetic modification. Their broad substrate utilization capacity, several effective key metabolic pathways, and a well-developed suite of bioprocess engineering strategies all point toward great promise for the future development of these marine protists.

Cultivation and diversity analysis of novel marine thraustochytrids

Marine Life Science and Technology, 2020
Thraustochytrids are a group of unicellular marine heterotrophic protists, and have long been known for their biotechnological potentials in producing squalene, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and other bioactive products. There are less than a hundred known strains from diverse marine habitats.

Antarctic Thraustochytrids as Sources of Carotenoids and High-Value Fatty Acids [PDF]

Marine Drugs, 2021
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and carotenoids are needed as human dietary supplements and are essential components in commercial feeds for the production of aquacultured seafood.

Extracellular Polysaccharide Production by Thraustochytrid Protists

Marine Biotechnology, 2005
Four strains of marine stramenopilan protists, the thraustochytrids, were studied for their ability to produce extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs). Observations by light and scanning electron microscopy revealed the production of a matrix of EPS around groups of cells in stationary cultures.

Isolation of fast-growing thraustochytrids and seasonal variation on the fatty acid composition of thraustochytrids from mangrove regions of Navi Mumbai, India

Journal of Environmental Management, 2021
This study was aimed to isolate fast-growing thraustochytrids and the influence of seasonal variation in fatty acid composition from the mangrove habitat. The thraustochytrids were isolated from fallen yellowish or green mangrove leaves, in four seasons, including winter, summer, rainy, and post rainy season in one year.

Thraustochytrid as a potential source of carotenoids

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 2003
AbstractThraustochytrids, marine protists whose dominant genera are Thraustochytrium and Schizochytrium, belong to the kingdom Chromista and are known as an industrial source of DHA. We describe here that thraustochytrid strain KH105, isolated as a DHA producer, also accumulates significant levels of β‐carotene and xanthophylls including canthaxanthin ...

Odd-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in thraustochytrids

Phytochemistry, 2011
A series of unusual odd-chain fatty acids (OC-FA) were identified in two thraustochytrid strains, TC 01 and TC 04, isolated from waters off the south east coast of Tasmania, Australia. FA compositions were determined by capillary GC and GC-MS, with confirmation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) structure performed by analysis of 4,4 ...

Lipid Characterization of Mangrove Thraustochytrid − Schizochytrium mangrovei

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2007
Lipid class composition and distribution of fatty acids within the lipid pool of microalga, Schizochytrium mangrovei FB3 harvested at the late exponential phase, was studied, with special emphasis on the distribution of docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6 n-3, DHA).

Thraustochytrid protists in Antarctic fast ice?

Antarctic Science, 1993
Sea ice provides a habitat for a conspicuous and productive assemblage of autotrophic microalgae and for heterotrophs ranging from bacteria to vertebrates (Horner 1990, Garrison 1991). With the exception of a reference to chytridiaceous fungi that were found infecting Arctic ice diatoms (Horner 1977) and a note in a cruise report (Schnack-Schiel 1987 ...
