TLDR
Inactivation of the peroxisome biogenesis gene PEX10 was crucial in obtaining high EPA yields and may increase the yields of other commercially desirable lipid-related products and provides a sustainable source of EPA.
Abstract
Metabolic engineering of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica greatly enhances yields of omega-3 eicosapentaenoic acid.

Combination of a Push–Pull–Block Strategy with a Heterologous Xylose Assimilation Pathway toward Lipid Overproduction from Lignocellulose in <i>Yarrowia lipolytica</i>

TL;DR: In this paper , an engineered Yarrowia lipolytica strain that can efficiently produce lipids from glucose and xylose was constructed. And the final evolved strain could accumulate 53.64% of the dry cell weight (DCW).

Antibiotic-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis altered host metabolism.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors found that taking antibiotics reduced the diversity and richness of gut microbiota and affected the composition of the microbiome, which in turn altered the metabolic profiles of plasma and fecal samples, and the most significant pathways related to the gut dysbiosis induced by antibiotics including purine, pentose and glucuronate metabolism, histidine, ascorbate and alternate, lysine degradation, and fatty acid biosynthesis.

Genome evolution in yeasts

TL;DR: Analysis of chromosome maps and genome redundancies reveal that the different yeast lineages have evolved through a marked interplay between several distinct molecular mechanisms, including tandem gene repeat formation, segmental duplication, a massive genome duplication and extensive gene loss.

Production of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids by Polyketide Synthases in Both Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes

TL;DR: In this article, pathways for PUFA synthesis are described that do not require desaturation and elongation of saturated fatty acids and are catalyzed by polyketide synthases (PKSs).
