  • Patent number: 11987819
    Abstract: The subject disclosure features, in one aspect, a method for producing lipids enriched for EPA, comprising modifying a microalga to increase expression of PFA1, and/or PFA3, and culturing the modified microalga under conditions which allow the expression of PFA1, and/or PFA3, wherein lipids enriched for EPA are produced. Also featured is a recombinant microalga in which PFA1, and/or PFA3, is overexpressed. Such recombinant microalgae have been demonstrated herein to produce very favorable fatty acid lipid profiles (e.g., increased levels of EPA, increased ratio of EPA:DHA, decreased levels of DPA n-6, etc.).
