A Lipid Bodies-Associated Galactosyl Hydrolase Is Involved in Triacylglycerol Biosynthesis and Galactolipid Turnover in the Unicellular Green Alga <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i>

Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) are the main constituent lipids of thylakoid and chloroplast envelop membranes. Many microalgae can accumulate large amounts of triacylglycerols (TAGs) under adverse environmental conditions, which is accompanied by degradatio...
