Microalgae, due to their complex metabolic capacity, are being continuously explored for nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals and other industrially important bioactives. However, suboptimal yield productivity of the bioactive interest in local robust wild-type strains perennial concerns industrial applications. To overcome such limitations, strain improvement through genetic engineering could play a decisive role. Though advanced tools have emerged at greater pace, they still remains under-used microalgae as compared microorganisms. Pertaining this, we reviewed progress made so far development molecular techniques, deployment engineering. The recent availability genome sequences omics datasets form diverse species remarkable potential guide strategic momentum program. This review focuses on significant improvements resources, mutant libraries high throughput screening methodologies helpful augment research model non-model microalgae. Authors also summarized case studies genetically engineered microalgae, highlight opportunities challenges that emerging from current application genome-editing facilitate microalgal improvement. Towards end, regulatory biosafety issues use commercial applications described.

Enhanced microalgal lipid production for biofuel using different strategies including genetic modification of microalgae: A review

Progress in Energy and Combustion Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 96, С. 101071 - 101071

Опубликована: Фев. 27, 2023

Microalgae have gained considerable attention as an alternative feedstock for the biofuel production, particularly in combination with genetic modification strategies that target enhanced lipid productivity. To tackle climate change issues, phasing out usage of fossil fuels is seen a priority, where utilization from microalgae serves potential sustainable energy source various applications. These photosynthetic utilize solar and carbon dioxide to produce energy-rich compounds (i.e., starch lipids), can be further converted into biofuels different types. Among types biofuels, biodiesel transesterification triacylglycerols stands most replacement transportation fuel over fossil-based petroleum diesel. However, hurdles such limited productivity, overall production cost challenges upscaling algal technology leaves huge gap on road commercialized microalgae-based biofuel. This review article first presents comprehensive overview imperative knowledge regarding terms classification, factors affecting growth during cultivation steps upstream processing. also discusses recent advances downstream processing microalgal biorefinery. Additionally, this paper focuses deliberating modifications their feasibility productivity microalgae. Finally, current future perspectives are highlighted discussing several aspects, including sustainability status algae-based industry, risks legislation considerations

Random Mutagenesis as a Promising Tool for Microalgal Strain Improvement towards Industrial Production

Marine Drugs, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 20(7), С. 440 - 440

Опубликована: Июнь 30, 2022

Microalgae have become a promising novel and sustainable feedstock for meeting the rising demand food feed. However, microalgae-based products are currently hindered by high production costs. One major reason this is that commonly cultivated wildtype strains do not possess robustness productivity required successful industrial production. Several strain improvement technologies been developed towards creating more stress tolerant productive strains. While classical methods of forward genetics extensively used to determine gene function randomly generated mutants, reverse has explored generate specific mutations target phenotypes. Site-directed mutagenesis can be accomplished employing different editing tools, which enable generation tailor-made genotypes. Nevertheless, strategies promoting selection mutants avoid introduction foreign genetic material. In paper, we review microalgal approaches their applications, with primary focus on random mutagenesis. Current challenges hampering improvement, selection, commercialization will discussed. The combination these high-throughput technologies, such as fluorescence-activated cell sorting, tools select most also
