Citrate-Mediated Acyl-CoA Synthesis Is Required for the Promotion of Growth and Triacylglycerol Production in Oleaginous Yeast <i>Lipomyces starkeyi</i>

The oleaginous yeast <i>Lipomyces starkeyi</i> is an excellent producer of triacylglycerol (TAG) as a feedstock for biodiesel production. To understand the regulation of TAG synthesis, we attempted to isolate mutants with decreased lipid productivity and analyze the expression of TAG syn...
