Overexpression of Tisochrysis lutea Akd1 identifies a key cold-induced alkenone desaturase enzyme

Alkenones are unusual long-chain neutral lipids that were first identified in oceanic sediments. Currently they are regarded as reliable palaeothermometers, since their unsaturation status changes depending on temperature. These molecules are synthesised by specific haptophyte algae and are stored i...
