Title:
LIPID PRODUCTION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/043418
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method for improving lipid productivity, whereby: the appearance of genes coding a protein (A) or (B) is promoted; and productivity of medium-chain fatty acids produced inside cells of a transformant or lipids having said medium-chain fatty acids as a structural component thereof is improved or the total amount of fatty acids produced inside the cells of the transformant is increased. (A) A protein comprising an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1. (B) A protein having glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity and comprising an amino acid sequence being at least 64% identical to the amino acid sequence for protein (A).
