From: Time‑resolved transcriptome analysis during transitions of sulfur nutritional status provides insight into triacylglycerol (TAG) and astaxanthin accumulation in the green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis

Fig. 9

A hypothetical model for underlying mechanism of TAG and astaxanthin hyperaccumulation under SS stress. The red color of boxes and genes indicates up-regulation. The orange box represents TAG and astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway. OPP pathway, oxidative pentose phosphate pathway; 6PGD, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase; G6PD, glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase; TCA cycle, tricarboxylic acid cycle; GA3P, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; FA, fatty acid; PK, pyruvate kinase; PDHC, pyruvate dehydrogenase complex; PAP, phosphatidate phosphatase; DGAT, Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase, type I; DGTT, Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase, type II; LCYb, lycopene beta cyclase; BKT, beta-carotene ketolase; MLDP, major lipid droplet protein
