Project description:Dunaliella tertiolecta is an extremophilic, green alga from the Chlorophyte lineage. It is found in coastal marine environments around the world. D. tertiolecta can tolerate extremes of heat, light, pH, and salinity. D. tertiolecta is under development for the production biofuels and other bioproducts because it can produce large quantities of neutral lipids, and it can be grown in open raceway ponds using only the inputs of seawater and sunlight. This isolate of D. tertiolecta (UTEX LB 999) was found in Oslofjord, Norway in 1938. This accession includes an RNA-Seq analysis of D. tertiolecta cultures grown in iron-replete (1.5 µM) or iron-deficient (0 µM) media.

Project description:Digital gene expression analysis by Ht-SuperSAGE (Matsumura et al. 2011. High-Throughput SuperSAGE. Methods Mol Biol.) was carried out to compare gene expression between wild type and mutant cell lines of the green algae Dunaliella tertiolecta under different light levels.

Project description:Background: For many years, increasing demands for fossil fuels have met with limited supply. As a potential substitute and renewable source of biofuel feedstock, microalgae have received significant attention. However, few of the current algal species produce high lipid yields to be commercially viable. To discover more high yielding strains, next-generation sequencing technology is used to elucidate lipid synthetic pathways and energy metabolism involved in lipid yield. When subjected to manipulation by genetic and metabolic engineering, enhancement of such pathways may further enhance lipid yield. Results: In this study, transcriptome profiling of a random insertional mutant with enhanced lipid production generated from a non-model marine microalga Dunaliella tertiolecta is presented. D9 mutant has a lipid yield that is 2-4 fold higher than that of wild type. Using novel Bag2D-workflow scripts developed and reported here, the non-redundant transcripts from de novo assembly were annotated based on the best hits in five model microalgae, namely Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Coccomyxa subellipsoidea C-169, Ostreococcus lucimarinus, Volvox carteri, and Chlorella variabilis NC64A. The assembled contigs (~181 Mb) includes 481,381 transcripts, covering 10,185 genes. Pathway analysis showed that a pathway from inositol phosphate metabolism to fatty acid biosynthesis is the most significantly correlated with higher lipid yield in this mutant. Conclusion: Herein, we described a pipeline to analyze RNA-Seq data without pre-existing transcriptomic information. The draft transcriptome of D. tertiolecta was constructed and annotated, which offered useful information for characterizing high lipid-producing mutants. D. tertiolecta mutant was generated with an enhanced photosynthetic efficiency and lipid production. RNA-Seq data of the mutant and wild type were compared, providing biological insights into the expression patterns of contigs associated with energy metabolism and carbon flow pathways. Comparison of D. tertiolecta genes with homologs of five other green algae can facilitate the annotation of D. tertiolecta, and lead to a more complete annotation of its sequence database, thus laying the groundwork for optimization of lipid production pathways based on genetic manipulation.
