Engineering xylose metabolism in thraustochytrid T18 [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic, oleaginous, marine protists with a significant potential for biofuel production. High-value co-products can off-set production costs; however, the cost of raw materials, and in particular carbon, is a major challenge to developing an economical viable production process.

Diverse Enzymes With Industrial Applications in Four Thraustochytrid Genera

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic fungus-like protists that can dissolve organic matters with enzymes. Four strains, AP45, ASP1, ASP2, and ASP4, were isolated from the coastal water of Taiwan, and respectively identified as Aurantiochytrium sp ...

Abundance of thraustochytrids in coastal plankton [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 1998
The abundance of thraustochytrids was investigated in and off the Seto Inland Sea, Japan. Thraustochytrid cells were stained with acriflavine and counted directly by epifluorescence rnicroscopy. Thraustochytrids were present in the water column at a density of 2.1 X 103 to 5.6 X 10' cells I-', with an overall average of 1.0 X 104 cells I-', which was ...

Overview of systematics, morphology, biodiversity and potential utilisation of Thraustochytrids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Thraustochytrids, heterotrophic protists were first reported in 1934 and then on several isolates were reported across the world and their advantageous and harmful properties have been explored and utilised.

Thraustochytrids (fungoid protist): an unexplored component of marine sediment microbiota

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2004
Thraustochytrids are poorly known fungoid protists able to decompose refractory organic substrates such as cellulose. These microorganisms probably play an important role in the microbial loop of marine sediments.

Coenzyme Q in Thraustochytrium sp. RT2316-16: Effect of the Medium Composition

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2023
Coenzyme Q (CoQ; ubiquinone) is an essential component of the respiratory chain. It is also a potent antioxidant that prevents oxidative damage to DNA, biological membranes, and lipoproteins.

Draft genome sequence of the docosahexaenoic acid producing thraustochytrid Aurantiochytrium sp. T66

open access: yesGenomics Data, 2016
Thraustochytrids are unicellular, marine protists, and there is a growing industrial interest in these organisms, particularly because some species, including strains belonging to the genus Aurantiochytrium, accumulate high levels of docosahexaenoic acid

Overexpression of Two New Acyl-CoA:Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase 2-Like Acyl-CoA:Sterol Acyltransferases Enhanced Squalene Accumulation in Aurantiochytrium limacinum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic marine eukaryotes known to accumulate large amounts of triacylglycerols, and they also synthesize terpenoids like carotenoids and squalene, which all have an increasing market demand. However, a more extensive knowledge

Influence of nitrogen sources on growth of thraustochytrids in waste water from the demineralization of cheese whey

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2019
An experimental design was ued to optimize the growth of two thraustochytrids, (Schizochytrium limacinum PA-968 and Japonochytrium marinum AN-4), on different nitrogen sources (yeast extract, corn steep liquor, ammonium sulphate) supplemented into saline
