  • Genetically engineered microbial strains including prototheca lipid pathway genes
    Patent number: 9649368
    Abstract: Genetically engineered microbial, e.g., Prototheca, cells provide microbial oil useful as a food additive and a source of renewable fuels and industrial chemicals.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 5, 2016
    Date of Patent: May 16, 2017
    Assignee: TERRAVIA HOLDINGS, INC.
    Inventors: Scott Franklin, Shane Brubaker, George N. Rudenko, Jeffrey L. Moseley, Xinhua Zhao, Tina T. Huynh, Riyaz Bhat, Matthew Shoa-Azar, Trung H. Nguyen, Karen Espina, Aravind Somanchi
  • Genetically engineered microbial strains including lipid pathway genes
    Patent number: 9518277
    Abstract: Genetically engineered microbial, e.g., Chlorella protothecoides, cells producing microbial oils are useful as a food additive and a source of renewable fuels and industrial chemicals. Lipid biosynthesis genes for Auxenochlorella protethecoides are disclosed that are useful for increasing lipid production and altering fatty acid and triacylglycerol profiles in recombinant microrganisms including cells of the genus Auxenochlorella or Prototheca.
