Cold-induced metabolic conversion of haptophyte di- to tri-unsaturated C(37) alkenones used as palaeothermometer molecules

The cosmopolitan marine haptophyte alga Emiliania huxleyi accumulates very long-chain (C(37)-C(40)) alkyl ketones with two to four trans-type carbon-carbon double bonds (alkenones). These compounds are used as biomarkers of haptophytes and as palaeothermometers for estimating sea-surface temperature...
