Biotechnological production of lipid and terpenoid from thraustochytrids.

Biotechnology Advances, 2021
As fungus-like protists, thraustochytrids have been increasingly studied for their faster growth rates and high lipid content. In the 1990s, thraustochytrids were used as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) producers for the first time. Thraustochytrids genera, such as Thraustochytrium, Schizochytrium, and Aurantiochytrium have been developed and patented as ...

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.

Multiproduct biorefinery from marine thraustochytrids towards a circular bioeconomy.

Trends in Biotechnology, 2021
Microalgal biotechnology research continues to expand due to largely unexplored marine environments and growing consumer interest in healthy products. Thraustochytrids, which are marine oleaginous protists, are known for their production of bioactives with significant applications in nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, and aquaculture.

Thraustochytrids as a promising source of fatty acids, carotenoids, and sterols: bioactive compound biosynthesis, and modern biotechnology

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2023
Thraustochytrids are eukaryotes and obligate marine protists. They are increasingly considered to be a promising feed additive because of their superior and sustainable application in the production of health-benefiting bioactive compounds, such as fatty

Are Thraustochytrids algae?

Fungal Biology, 2017
Thraustochytrids, a heterotrophic fungus-like clade of Stramenopiles, are becoming an increasingly important source of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) for biotechnological industries. PUFA rich oils from these organisms are subsequently referred to in some literature and marketing sources as being derived from 'algae', in spite of their non ...

The Biotechnological Potential of Thraustochytrids

Marine Biotechnology, 1999
Thraustochytrids are common marine microheterotrophs, taxonomically aligned with heterokont algae. Recent studies have shown that some thraustochytrid strains can be cultured to produce high biomass, containing substantial amounts of lipid rich in polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA).

Cryopreservation of marine thraustochytrids (Labyrinthulomycetes)

Cryobiology, 2009
In this research, the viability of three marine thraustochytrid isolates (fungoid protists) (WSG05, W15 and WH3) were investigated after freezing in liquid nitrogen. Five cryopreservative combinations containing horse serum, glycerol and dimethylsulfide (Me(2)SO) were used.

A Mesohaline Thraustochytrid Produces Extremely Halophilic Alpha-Amylases

Marine Biotechnology, 2020
Halophilic bacteria are well known to produce highly salt-tolerant enzymes that have unusual applications in biotechnology. Production of halophilic proteins is generally not expected in mesohaline microorganisms. Ulkenia sp. AH-2, a mesohaline, marine straminipilan thraustochytrid isolated from waters of a mangrove ecosystem, produces halophilic alpha-

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.
