Ecological Dynamics of Two Distinct Viruses Infecting Marine Eukaryotic Decomposer Thraustochytrids (Labyrinthulomycetes, Stramenopiles). [PDF]
Thraustochytrids are cosmopolitan osmotrophic or heterotrophic microorganisms that are considered as important decomposers in coastal ecosystems. However, because of a lack of estimation method for each genus or systematic group of them, relatively ...

The biotechnological potential of thraustochytrids
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 ...

ATP Drives Efficient Terpene Biosynthesis in Marine Thraustochytrids [PDF]
Understanding carbon flux controlling mechanisms in a tangled metabolic network is an essential question of cell metabolism. Secondary metabolism, such as terpene biosynthesis, has evolved with low carbon flux due to inherent pathway constraints ...
