Our results reveal that this MYB, conserved in green algae, is involved in regulating global lipid metabolic pathways for TAG biosynthesis and accumulation. Keywords: DNA binding; algal oil; biofuels; carotenoid biosynthesis; insertional mutation; lipid metabolism; transcriptional regulation.

Mar 28, 2022 · CzMYB1, an R2R3-MYB from Chromochloris zofingiensis, was transcriptionally upregulated upon TAG-inducing conditions and correlated well with many genes involved in the de novo fatty acid synthesis, fatty acid activation and …

Apr 5, 2022 · We found that the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii gene encoding the MYB-type transcription factor MYB1 is highly induced under stress conditions. Two myb1 mutants accumulated less total fatty acids and storage lipids than their …

Nov 7, 2023 · Transcription factors (TFs) are emerging as key regulators of lipid metabolism for biofuel production in microalgae. We previously identified a novel TF MYB1, which mediates lipid accumulation in the green microalga Chlamydomonas under nitrogen depletion.

Apr 22, 2022 · We found that the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii gene encoding the MYB-type transcription factor MYB1 is highly induced under stress conditions. Two myb1 mutants accumulated less total fatty acids and storage lipids than their …

Aug 8, 2020 · Here, we identified a MYB-like transcription factor responsible for regulating membrane lipid homeostasis during Pi-starved conditions in N. oceanica. Our results provide insight into the regulatory mechanism of the Pi starvation response in N. oceanica.

Jun 22, 2017 · MYBL2 is a highly conserved member of the MYB family of transcription factors. MYBL2 is an important physiological regulator of cell cycle progression, cell survival and cell differentiation....

Based on these findings, we propose a model in which MYB30 modulates HR via VLCFAs by themselves, or VLCFA derivatives, as cell death messengers in plants. responses to pathogen attack involve transcriptional activation or repression of a large number of plant host genes.

Nov 22, 2018 · These results suggested that JcMYB1 may augment the lipid content by regulating lipid biosynthetic genes. Additionally, manipulation of JcMYB1 in oil crop plants may be used for the potential improvement of oil production and quality.

Mar 7, 2008 · Based on these findings, we propose a model in which MYB30 modulates cell death lipid signaling by enhancing the synthesis of VLCFA in the endoplasmic reticulum.
