U Texas at Austin researchers rewire yeast for high lipid generation; 60x improvement over parent strains

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin’s Cockrell School of Engineering have rewired the native metabolism of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica for superior production of lipids (lipogenesis). Traditional methods to increase lipids yield rely on nitrogen starvation to trick yeast cells into storing fat and materials.
