CROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/800,029, filed Mar. 15, 2013, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/800,114, filed Mar. 15, 2013, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in the entirety for all purposes.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Algae, e.g., microalgae, are photosynthetic organisms that convert light energy and carbon dioxide into biomass including lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. Marine algae strains can have an oil content of 10-50%, (w/w) and produce a high percentage of total lipids (up to 30-70% of dry weight) (Ward OP and Singh A, Process Biochem, 2005, 40(12):3627-3652). Various algal strains can produce omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, e.g., eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; C22:6-n3). For example, algae of the genus Nannachloropsis are abundant in EPA as well as the omega-7 fatty acid, palmitoleic acid (C16: ln-7), and the ω-7 fatty acid, arachidonic acid (C20:4n-6) Algae are becoming an increasing important source of nutritionally important omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
[0003] The composition of the fatty acids varies among the different algal strains. For instance, it has been reported that Nannochloropsis spp. contains 26.7% (percentage from total fatty acids) EPA and DHA (Hu H and Gao K, Biotechnol Lett, 2003, 25(5):421-425), while Nannochloropsis oceania has 23.4% EPA (Patil et al., Aquac Int, 2007, 15(1):1-9) and Nannochloropsis salina contains about 28% EPA (Van Wagenen et al., Energies, 2012, 5(3):731-740).
[0004] The consumption of omega-3 fatty acids has been shown to prevent cardiovascular disease, enhance brain function, and diminish symptoms of inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis. For instance, the EPA only therapeutic formulation Vascepa® is approved for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia. There is a growing demand for algal-derived omega-3 EPA only compositions in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industry. Thus, it is desirable to cultivate algal strains such as those of the genus Nannochloropsis for production of EPA and other compositions.
[0005] However, it can be difficult to grow such microalgae at sufficient scale and with sufficient productivity. For example, the biochemical steps of harvesting light energy and fixing carbon dioxide into biomass can be saturated at high photon flux. Additionally, the light harvesting pigments of an organism can absorb excess photons, thereby shading other microalgae and preventing their light harvesting. Excess photon absorption may further limit photosynthesis by causing photo-inhibition. The present invention addresses these and other related needs by providing a novel algal cell.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] The invention relates to chlorophyll deficient microalgae of the genus Nannochloropsis, methods of generating such chlorophyll deficient algae, and methods of their use.
[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an isolated algal cell of the genus Nannochloropsis, the algal cell having less chlorophyll content than a wild-type cell, wherein the algal cell comprises at least one polymorphism in comparison to a wild-type cell. In some embodiments of the first aspect, the at least one polymorphism is selected from the group consisting of the polymorphisms recited in SEQ ID NOS:1-51.

The algal cell can contain less than about 0.61% ARA per gram dry weight. In some cases, the algal cell has an EPA/ARA mass ratio of greater than about 5:1. In some cases, the algal cell has a Pmax at least 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 150%, 200% or more higher than the Pmax of a wild-type algal cell grown under the same conditions.

DEFINITIONS
[0029] The term "algae" or "algal cell" refers to a marine algal cell or algae, including algae or algal cells of the kingdom chromista, algae or algal cells of the class Chrysophyceae, Cryptophyceae, Prasinophyceae, Rhodophyceae, Xanthophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Glaucophyceae, and Eustignatophyceae. In some embodiments, the algae is of the genus Nannochloropsis. In preferred embodiments, the Nannochloropsis is Nannochloropsis gaditana, Nannochloropsis granulate, Nannochloropsis limnetica, Nannochloropsis oceanica, Nannochloropsis oculata or Nannochloropsis salina. In some cases, the algal cell is a Nannochloropsis oceanica algal cell.
[0030] The term "biomass" refers to a harvested mass of organisms. The organisms can be living or dead. In certain embodiments, the biomass is algal biomass. The algal biomass can be dry, substantially dry, or wet. Typically, the biomass refers to organisms that have not been extracted with a solvent or otherwise substantially altered in composition. Accordingly, harvested biomass can retain at least the approximate, or in some cases the same, lipid, protein, and/or carbohydrate composition of the cultivated organisms from which the biomass is harvested.
[0031] The term "productivity" refers to the amount of product an organism can produce under defined conditions. Productivity can be measured in grams of dry weight algal cells produced per m2 per day of culture. Alternatively, productivity can be measured in terms of algal cells produced per unit area or unit volume per unit time. As another alternative, productivity can be measured in terms of moles of carbon fixed per m2 per day of culture. As yet another alternative, productivity can be measured in terms of moles of O2 evolved per m2 per day of culture. As yet one more alternative, productivity can be measured in terms of the rate of production of a desirable product or product(s) such as lipid (e.g., total lipid or EPA), protein, and/or carbohydrate. Moreover, any one of the productivity measurements can, e.g., be determined with respect to culture volume (e.g., grams of algal cells/m3/day) or number of cells, including an average (e.g., mean or median) per cell. For example, productivity can be measured in terms of nmol of O2 evolved per algal cell per day.
[0032] The term "non photon saturating conditions" refers to conditions in which an algal cell does not exhibit photon saturation. Photon saturation can depend on a variety of factors such as temperature, wavelength of incident light, density of culture, nutrient availability, composition of dissolved gases, etc. In general, photon saturation occurs in laboratory conditions under incident light of greater than about 400 μmol photons/m2/s light intensity (e.g., at least about 400, 450, 500, 600, 750, 1000, 2000, or more μmol photons/m2/s). Non photon saturating conditions generally occur in the laboratory under incident light of less than about 400 μmol photons/m2/s light intensity (e.g., less than about 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, 100, or fewer μmol photons/m2/s).
[0033] The term "eicosapentaenoic acid" or "EPA" refers an omega-3 fatty acid polyunsaturated fatty acid with the following connotation C20:5-n3. It is a carboxylic acid with a 20-carbon chain and five cis double bonds; the first double bond is located at the third carbon from the omega end.
[0034] The term "docosahexaenoic acid" or "DHA" refers an omega-3 fatty acid PUFA. It is a carboxylic acid with a 22-carbon chain and six cis double bonds; the first double bond is located at the third carbon from the omega end. DHA is also denoted as C22:6-n3.
[0035] The term "arachidonic acid" or "ARA" refers an omega-6 PUFA with a 20-carbon chain and four cis-double bonds; the first double bond is located at the sixth carbon from the omega end. ARA is also denoted as C20:4-n6.
[0036] The term "nucleic acid" or "polynucleotide" refers to deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) or ribonucleic acids (RNA) and polymers thereof in either single- or double-stranded form. Unless specifically limited, the term encompasses nucleic acids containing known analogues of natural nucleotides that have similar binding properties as the reference nucleic acid and are metabolized in a manner similar to naturally occurring nucleotides. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions), alleles, orthologs, SNPs, and complementary sequences as well as the sequence explicitly indicated. Specifically, degenerate codon substitutions may be achieved by generating sequences in which the third position of one or more selected (or all) codons is substituted with mixed-base and/or deoxyinosine residues (Batzer et al., Nucleic Acid Res. 19:5081 (1991); Ohtsuka et al., J. Biol. Chem. 260:2605-2608 (1985); and Rossolini et al., Mol. Cell. Probes 8:91-98 (1994)). The term nucleic acid is used interchangeably with gene, cDNA, and mRNA encoded by a gene.
[0037] The term "gene" means the segment of DNA involved in producing a polypeptide chain. It may include regions preceding and following the coding region (e.g., 5' and 3' untranslated regions, promoters, etc.) as well as intervening sequences (introns) between individual coding segments (exons).
[0038] A "promoter" is defined as an array of nucleic acid control sequences that direct transcription of a nucleic acid. As used herein, a promoter includes necessary nucleic acid sequences near the start site of transcription, such as, in the case of a polymerase II type promoter, a TATA element. A promoter also optionally includes distal enhancer or repressor elements, which can be located as much as several thousand base pairs from the start site of transcription.
[0039] An "expression cassette" is a nucleic acid construct, generated recombinantly or synthetically, with a series of specified nucleic acid elements that permit transcription of a particular polynucleotide sequence in a host cell. An expression cassette may be part of a plasmid, viral genome, or nucleic acid fragment. Typically, an expression cassette includes a polynucleotide to be transcribed, operably linked to a promoter.
[0040] The term "polymorphism" refers to a polynucleotide sequence variant. The polymorphism can be a knock-out mutation, in which the function of an encoded gene is abolished or reduced below an effective level. The polymorphism can arise due to substitution, deletion, or insertion of one or more nucleotides at a polymorphic site. Polymorphisms can give rise to variant protein sequences, result in defective proteins, or result in up or downregulation of a gene as compared to wild-type.
[0041] The term "amino acid" refers to naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimetics that function in a manner similar to the naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as those amino acids that are later modified, e.g., hydroxyproline, γ-carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. Amino acid analogs refers to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid, i.e., an a carbon that is bound to a hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an R group, e.g., homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, methionine methyl sulfonium. Such analogs have modified R groups (e.g., norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but retain the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid. "Amino acid mimetics" refers to chemical compounds having a structure that is different from the general chemical structure of an amino acid, but that functions in a manner similar to a naturally occurring amino acid.
[0042] Amino acids may be referred to herein by either the commonly known three letter symbols or by the one-letter symbols recommended by the IUPAC-IUB Biochemical Nomenclature Commission. Nucleotides, likewise, may be referred to by their commonly accepted single-letter codes.
[0043] "Polypeptide," "peptide," and "protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues. All three terms apply to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acid residue is an artificial chemical mimetic of a corresponding naturally occurring amino acid, as well as to naturally occurring amino acid polymers and non-naturally occurring amino acid polymers. As used herein, the terms encompass amino acid chains of any length, including full-length proteins, wherein the amino acid residues are linked by covalent peptide bonds.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
I. Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cells
[0050] Described herein is a chlorophyll deficient algal cell. The chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a pale green phenotype as compared to a wild-type algal cell and, as further described below, can exhibit increased productivity and/or grow to a higher cell density as compared to a wild-type algal cell under the same lighting conditions. Generally, the chlorophyll deficient phenotype is stable through multiple generations without selection. Moreover, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is capable of robust growth under standard conditions.
[0051] For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit productivity that is at least about 25%, 50%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% of the productivity of a wild-type algal cell under non-photon saturating conditions. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit the same, or substantially the same, productivity as a wild-type algal cell under non-photon saturating conditions. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits higher growth or productivity as compared to a wild-type algal cell under non-photon saturating conditions. As another example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit productivity that is at least about 25%, 50%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% of the productivity of a wild-type algal cell under conditions that would saturate photosynthesis of wild-type algal cells. In some cases, the conditions that saturate photosynthesis of wild-type algal cells do not saturate photosynthesis of the chlorophyll deficient algal cell.
[0052] In some embodiments, a chlorophyll deficient algal cell of the present invention has one or more mutations as compared to a wild-type algal cell. The one or more mutations can be generated through directed mutagenesis or may be derived through random mutagenesis. In some cases the chlorophyll deficient algal cell comprises a mutation at or near (e.g., within less than about 1 kb, 500 bp, 250 bp, 100 bp, 50 bp, 25 bp, 20 bp, 10 bp, 5 bp, 4 bp, 3 bp, 2 bp, or at) one or more of the genomic locations of Table 1, in any combination:

[0056] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is a cell of the strain T661, or an isolate of a T661 culture. Chlorophyll deficient algal cells of the strain T661, or isolates thereof, are characterized by at least 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 4, 47, 48, 49, 50, or all 51 of the polymorphisms encoded by SEQ ID NOS:1-51. The chlorophyll deficient algal cell of the strain T661 are Nannochloropsis oceanica algal cells having a pale green phenotype.

[0058] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell of the present invention has one or more mutations in a gene involved in photosynthesis as compared to a wild-type algal cell. For example, the mutation can be in a component of a light harvesting complex or a photosystem complex. In some cases, the algal cell can have a mutation of a component of the Ch1 a or Ch1 b light harvesting complex. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a mutation in a gene involved in assembly of, or regulation of, the Ch1 a or Ch1 b light harvesting complex. For example, the mutation can be in a gene identical to, homologous to, or orthologous to ALB3.1, TLA1, TLA2, or NAB1 of a microalgal cell. As another example, the mutation can be in a gene encoding a component of the signal recognition particle or a gene involved in the assembly or regulation of the signal recognition particle. In some cases, the mutation can be in a gene identical to, homologous to, or orthologous to a CpFTSY gene.
[0059] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is characterized by down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts as compared to a wild-type cell. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit a reduction in mRNA expression of one or more of the mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68, in any combination. As an example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit a reduction in mRNA expression of any one 1 of, 2 of, 3 of, 4 of, 5 of, 6 of, 7 of, 8 of, 9 of, 10 of, 11 of, 12 of, 13 of, 14 of, 15 of, 16 of, or all 17 of the mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68.
[0060] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is characterized by down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts encoding a protein involved in chloroplast function. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be down-regulated in one or more mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:54, or 55. The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can, in some cases, exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcript encoded by SEQ ID NO:54, exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcript encoded by SEQ ID NO:55, or exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:54 and 55. In some embodiments, the down-regulation is in comparison to a wild-type algal cell during log-phase growth in F2N2 media.
[0061] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is characterized by down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts encoding a transcription factor that affects (e.g., activates or represses) transcription of a protein involved in chloroplast function. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be down-regulated in one or more mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:56, 57, 60, 63, 64, or 65. The down-regulation can be in comparison to a wild-type algal cell during log-phase growth in F2N2 media. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be down regulated in any one or more of the mRNA transcripts encoded by the SEQ ID NO: combinations listed in Table 3.

[0062] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is characterized by down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:56, 57, 60, 63, 64, or 65 and/or one or more of the combinations described in Table 3. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcript encoded by SEQ ID NO:54 (e.g., and/or any of the combinations described in Table 3), exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcript encoded by SEQ ID NO:55 (e.g., and/or any of the combinations described in Table 3), or exhibit down-regulation of the mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:54 and 55 (e.g., and/or any of the combinations described in Table 3). In some embodiments, the down-regulation is in comparison to a wild-type algal cell during log-phase growth in F2N2 media.
[0063] The mRNA expression of the one or more transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68 in the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be less than about 1/2, 1/10th, 1/50th, 1/100th, or 1/1000th of the expression of the mRNA in a wild-type cell. For example, the mRNA expression of any one of the foregoing combinations of transcripts can be less than about 1/2, 1/10th, 1/50th, 1/100th, or 1/1000 of the expression of the mRNA in a wild-type cell. In some cases, the down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts is obtained, measured, or detected during log-phase growth of the algal cells. For example, a chlorophyll deficient algal cell in log-phase growth in F2N2 media can exhibit down-regulation of one or more mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68, in any combination in comparison to a wild-type algal cell during log-phase growth in F2N2 media.
[0064] In some embodiments, the photosynthesis of the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is saturated or nearly saturated at higher irradiance levels as compared to a wild-type algal cell. For example, the photon flux that saturates photosynthesis can be higher for the chlorophyll deficient algal cell as compared to a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the rate of photosynthesis in the wild-type algal cell reaches a maximum level, and is therefore saturated, at less than about 1000, 600, 550, 500, 450, 400, 350, 300, or 250 μmol photons/m2/s of irradiance, whereas the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is saturated at an irradiance level that is at least approximately 10% higher, 15% higher, 20% higher, 25% higher, 30% higher, 35% higher, 40% higher, 50% higher, 75% higher, 100% higher, 150% higher, 200% higher, or more. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit saturation of photosynthesis at irradiance levels that are at least 1.2-fold, 1.5-fold, 1.75-fold, 2-fold, 2.5-fold, 3-fold, 3.5-fold, 4-fold or more higher than the photosynthesis saturating irradiance level of a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, saturation of photosynethsis is determined in algal cells grown in F2N2 medium (e.g., F2N2/50% seawater medium) at log phase under approximately 200 μmol photons/m2/s irradiance.
[0065] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits a significantly higher maximum photosynthetic rate as compared to a wild-type algal cell. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit a maximum photosynthetic rate that is at least about 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100%, 150%, 200%, or 300% of the maximum photosynthetic rate of a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit a maximum photosynthetic rate that is increased by at least about 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100%, 150%, 200%, or 300% of the maximum photosynthetic rate of a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the maximum photosynthetic rate is measured as the maximum electron transport rate (ETR) of photosystem II (PSII) or the maximum relative ETR (rETR) of PSII. In some cases, the maximum photosynthetic rate is measured in cells grown under non-nutrient limiting conditions. In some cases, saturation of photosynethsis is determined in algal cells grown in F2N2 medium (e.g., F2N2/50% seawater medium) at log phase under approximately 200 μmol photons/m2/s irradiance.
[0066] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits a greater resistance to photo-inhibition as compared to a wild-type cell. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit less photo-inhibition at high irradiance levels than a wild-type cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit no, or substantially no, photo-inhibition at irradiance levels of at least about 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 600, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 μmol photons/m2/s or more.
[0067] The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can have less than about 90%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 39%, 38%, 37%, 35%, 34%, 33%, 32%, 31%, 30%, 20%, or less than about 10% of the chlorophyll content than a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can have about 0.11 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.10 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.09 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.08 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.07 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.06 pg Ch1 a per cell, 0.05 pg Ch1 a per cell, or less. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can have any one of the foregoing Ch1 a amounts when grown at, e.g., log phase, in F2N2 media under standard growth conditions (e.g., F2N2 media, 20 ppt salinity, 3% CO2, and 250 μmol photons/m2/s).
[0068] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a reduced photosystem I or photosystem II antenna size as compared to a wild-type algal cell. For example, the average antenna size of photosystem I or photosystem II can be less than about 99%, 95%, 90%, 85%, 80%, 75%, 70%, 65%, 60%, 55%, 50%, 45%, 40%, 35%, 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, or 10%, of the antenna size in a wild-type algal cell.
[0069] The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be useful for enhanced growth or productivity as compared to a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, a chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit enhanced growth or productivity when photons are not evenly distributed throughout a culture. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit enhanced growth or productivity in an open pond format. In an open pond, or other similar format, a culture receives incident photons from the sun. Therefore, wild-type algal cells near the surface of the pond will absorb the vast majority of photosynthetically active photons. Consequently, algal cells distal from the surface will be photon limited. In contrast, a culture of chlorophyll deficient algal cells can allow a greater proportion of photosynthetically active photons to penetrate, and/or penetrate deeper into, the culture volume. Thus, more algal cells will have access to light and fewer algal cells in the culture will be photon limited. Moreover, in some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cells can have a higher maximum photosynthesis rate at saturating light intensities, therefore utilizing a greater percentage of the incident light. As a result, the population of chlorophyll deficient algal cells in the culture can exhibit greater productivity as compared to wild-type.
[0070] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be useful for enhanced growth or productivity as compared to a wild-type algal cell even when photons are evenly, or substantially evenly, distributed throughout a culture. In some cases, chlorophyll deficient algal cells that exhibit a higher maximum rate of photosynthesis can provide enhanced growth or productivity even when photons are evenly, or substantially evenly distributed throughout a culture. Examples of culture geometries providing even, or substantially even, distribution of photons include thin tubes, flat membranes, planar modules, flexible plastic film bioreactors, helical bioreactors, etc.
[0071] In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit productivity of at least about 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 80, 90, 100, or more grams of dry algal biomass/m2/day.
[0072] The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be cultured in conditions suitable for marine algae. Such conditions include a wide range of salinity and temperature. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can survive and/or grow at temperatures of between about 4° C.-40° C. and a salinity range between about 8 parts per thousand (ppt) to over 50 ppt. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits the same, or approximately the same, ideal growth temperature and salinity conditions as a wild-type algal cell. In other cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits enhanced heat tolerance, enhanced salinity tolerance, enhanced low salinity tolerance, enhanced cold tolerance, or enhanced tolerance to osmotic pressure (e.g., enhanced growth under low salinity conditions) as compared to a wild-type cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits enhanced tolerance to ambient heat because fewer cells are exposed to potentially damaging light intensities, which are typically higher saturating light intensities. Cells exhibiting less damage by excessive light irradiation might thus endure more damage by higher ambient temperatures.
[0073] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is acclimated to a low salinity growth environment. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell that is acclimated to a low salinity growth environment is able to grow in medium having a total dissolved solids concentration of less than about 20 ppt, less than about 18 ppt, less than about 16 ppt, less than about 15 ppt, less than about 14 ppt, less than about 12 ppt, less than about 10 ppt, less than about 8 ppt, less than about 6 ppt, less than about 4 ppt, or lower.
[0074] In some cases, the low salinity acclimated chlorophyll deficient algal cell can grow in a low salinity medium in which a wild-type algal cell exhibits growth inhibition. For example, the low salinity acclimated chlorophyll deficient algal cell can exhibit growth and/or productivity in a low salinity growth medium that is at least about 10%, 20%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 150%, 200%, 300%, or more higher than the growth of a wild-type algal cell under the same conditions. In an exemplary embodiment, the low salinity acclimated chlorophyll deficient algal cell exhibits growth inhibition of 5% in medium containing 10 ppt dissolved solids as compared to medium containing 20 ppt dissolved solids. In contrast, a wild-type algal cell, for example, can exhibit 50%, 75%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, about 100%, or 100% growth inhibition in growth medium containing 10 ppt dissolved solids.
[0075] Similarly, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be acclimated to a high salinity growth environment. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell that is acclimated to a high salinity growth environment is able to grow in medium having a total dissolved solids concentration of greater than about 20 ppt, greater than about 25 ppt, greater than about 30 ppt, greater than about 35 ppt, greater than about 40 ppt, greater than about 45 ppt, greater than about 50 ppt, or higher. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell that is acclimated to a high salinity growth environment can exhibit growth and/or productivity in a high salinity growth medium that is at least about 10%, 20%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 150%, 200%, 300%, or more higher than the growth of a wild-type algal cell under the same conditions.
[0076] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell produces a high proportion of lipids. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can produce up to about 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, or more lipid by dry weight. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell produces the same, or substantially the same lipid amount as a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell produces at least about 10%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 70%, 80%, or 100% more lipid than a wild-type algal cell, e.g., when cultured under the same conditions. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a lipid profile that is the same, or substantially the same as a wild-type algal cell. In other cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has an improved lipid profile in comparison to a wild-type algal cell. For example, in some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a higher percentage of EPA or a greater amount of EPA as compared to a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has a lower percentage of ARA or DHA or a lower amount of ARA or DHA as compared to a wild-type algal cell. Percentage of a particular lipid can be measured as, e.g., a percentage of dry algal weight or a percentage of total lipid.
[0077] In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has at least about 3.9-5% or more EPA per gram dry weight. In some cases, the EPA content of the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is at least about 5-15% higher than the EPA content in a wild-type algal cell. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has an EPA concentration as a proportion of total fatty acids of at least about 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or more. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell produces no, or substantially no (e.g., less than about 0.5%) DHA per gram dry weight or as a percentage of total fatty acids. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has an ARA content of less than about 1%, 0.9%, 0.8%, 0.7%, 0.61%, 0.6%, 0.5%, 0.4%, 0.3%, or less than about 0.2%. per gram dry weight, or as a percentage of total fatty acids. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell has an EPA/ARA mass ration of greater than about 30:1, 25:1, 20:1, 15:1, 10:1, 9:1, 8:1, 7:1, 6:1, 5:1, 4:1, 3:1, or 2:1.
[0078] The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can provide easier extraction of one or more desired compounds. In some cases, the easier extraction is provided by a higher content of the one or more desired compounds. In some cases, the easier extraction is provided by a greater production of the desired compound. In some cases, the easier extraction is provided by a reduced cell wall integrity of the algal cell. For example, the algal cell can be more susceptible to disruption by heating, mechanical means, sonication, solvent extraction, or a combination thereof. In some cases, the easier extraction is provided by a lower aqueous content of the algal cell. In some cases, the reduced amount of chlorophyll per algal cell affords a greater efficiency of oil extraction and/or purification.
II. Methods
A. Random Mutagenesis
[0079] A chlorophyll deficient algal cell of the present invention can be generated by random mutagenesis, directed mutagenesis, or by interfering with the transcription or translation of one or more genes or gene products. In one embodiment, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is generated by random mutagenesis. Random mutagenesis can be useful for generating strains of algal cells that exhibit a desired phenotype but are not subject to restrictions generally placed on so-called genetically modified organisms ("gmo"). Methods of generating a chlorophyll deficient algal cell by random mutagenesis are provided herein.
[0080] Wild-type algal cells can be contacted with a mutagen to generate a library of random mutant algal cells. Suitable mutagens include but are not limited to one or more of the following chemical mutagens: an acridine mutagen (e.g., ICR-191), ethylmethane sulphonate (EMS), methyl methane sulfonate, 2-aminopurine, ethylene imine (EI), nitrosoethyl urea, nitrosoethyl urethane, N-Methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), or sodium azide. Suitable mutagens further include irradiation (e.g., fast neutron bombardment, X-ray, ultraviolet, or gamma ray irradiation). Mutagenesis can also be performed by mobilization of transposable elements or random insertion of transposable elements (or other suitable nucleic acid) into the genome of the algal cells.
[0081] The library of random mutant algal cells can be selected for a chlorophyll deficient phenotype. Suitable methods for selecting chlorophyll deficient algal cells include plating the algal cell to generate colonies and selecting colonies that exhibit a pale green phenotype as compared to wild-type algal cells. Alternatively, the cells can be inoculated by limiting dilution into individual wells, cultured, and selected for cultures that are pale-green as compared to wild-type algal cultures. The selection can be performed manually or in an automated fashion. Pale green colonies can be resuspended and replated one, two, three, or more times to ensure stability of the pale green phenotype. Similarly, pale green cultures can be selected, diluted, and re-cultured to ensure stability of the pale green phenotype. In some cases, stability is defined as the absence of normally pigmented colonies or cultures, or the absence of sectored colonies (e.g., colonies having sectors with varying degrees of pigmentation), after re-plating or re-culturing.
[0082] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is generated by random mutagenesis and then one or more algal cells containing a chlorophyll deficient mutation is identified and/or selected based upon the presence or absence of a known genetic element. For example, the chlorophyll deficient mutation can be identified and/or selected by TILLING (described at tilling.ucdavis.edu/index.php/Main_Page) or EcoTILLING. In some cases, the TILLING or EcoTILLING is performed to identify algal cells having a mutation in one or more of the genomic sequences encoded by SEQ ID NOS: 69-119.
[0083] A specific method of generating a chlorophyll deficient algal cell of the invention by random mutagenesis is described in Example 1.
B. Directed Mutagenesis
[0084] In some embodiments, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is generated by directed mutagenesis. Directed mutagenesis can be performed by homologous recombination to introduce a nucleic acid at or near the gene to be mutated. Directed mutagenesis can additionally, or alternatively, be performed using a Zinc-Finger nuclease, TALEN, or CRSPR-Cas system to cleave or nick genomic DNA at or near the gene to be mutated. The cleavage or nick-site can then be repaired by non homologous end joining or homologous recombination to introduce one or more mutations. In some cases, the algal cell can simultaneously or sequentially be contacted with a second nucleic acid containing homology to one or more regions flanking the cleavage or nick site. The second nucleic acid can then be introduced into the cleavage or nick site to disrupt the target sequence. Suitable targets for generating a chlorophyll deficient algal cell by directed mutagenesis include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following genomic sequences: SEQ ID NOS: 69-119.
[0085] In some embodiments, recombinant DNA vectors containing isolated nucleic acid sequences suitable for transformation, and directed mutagenesis, of algal cells are prepared. Techniques for transforming algal cells are known in the art. See, e.g., Kilian, et al., PNAS 108(52), p. 21265-69 (2011). A DNA sequence coding for the desired RNA or polypeptide, for example a cDNA sequence encoding a full length protein, will preferably be combined with transcriptional and translational initiation regulatory sequences which will direct the transcription of the sequence from the introduced polynucleotide.
[0086] For example, for overexpression, a promoter fragment may be employed which will direct expression of the gene in the algal cell. Such promoters are referred to herein as "constitutive" promoters and are active under most environmental conditions and states of development or cell differentiation. Examples of constitutive promoters include, without limitation, the promoter region of: translation elongation factor alpha (TEF-alpha) or acyl carrier protein (ACP). See, e.g., U.S. Patent Publication No: 2013/0289262. Exemplary constitutive promoters can further include a heat shock protein promoter, or a violaxanthin chlorophyll A binding protein promoter (e.g., VCP1 or VCP2). See, e.g., U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/685,659, filed Feb. 6, 2014 and U.S. Patent Publication No: 2009/0317904.
[0087] Alternatively, the promoter may direct expression of the polynucleotide of the invention under more precise environmental control (inducible promoters). Examples of environmental conditions that may affect transcription by inducible promoters include anaerobic conditions, nutrient conditions, elevated temperature, or the presence or absence of light. As an example, promoters driving genes associated with nitrogen metabolism are highly regulated. The promoter of the ammonium transporter, e.g., can be used to drive expression of a heterologous gene during nitrogen limiting conditions. As another example, the nitrate reductase or nitrate transporter promoters can be used to repress expression in the presence of ammonium.
[0088] If proper polypeptide expression is desired, a polyadenylation region at the 3'-end of the coding region should be included. The polyadenylation region can be derived from the natural gene, or from a variety of other algal genes.
[0089] The vector comprising the sequences (e.g., promoters or coding regions) from genes of the invention can optionally comprise a marker gene that confers a selectable phenotype on algal cells. For example, the marker may encode biocide resistance, particularly antibiotic resistance, such as resistance to kanamycin, G418, bleomycin, hygromycin, or herbicide resistance, such as resistance to chlorosluforon or Basta. The expression vector can be designed to facilitate random insertion into the genome of the algal cell, or targeted insertion into the genome of the algal cell, e.g., by homologous recombination. Alternatively, the vector can propagate extrachromosomally.
C. Transcriptional or Translational Interference
[0090] Chlorophyll deficient algal cells of the present invention can be generated by interfering with the transcription or translation of one or more genes encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68. For example, an algal cell can be contacted with a polynucleotide encoding an antisense RNA, an shRNA, or an siRNA that binds to one or more of the mRNA transcripts encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68. As another example, CRSPR-interference can be utilized to bind a sequence upstream from one or more of the genes encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68 and inhibit their transcription. In some cases, CRSPR can be used to localize an additional protein that represses transcription upstream of the one or more genes encoded by SEQ ID NOS:52-68. For example, the transcriptional repressor can be fused to Cas9, or a mutant thereof (e.g., a nuclease deficient Cas 9).
[0091] One or more expression vectors encoding a nucleic acid for transcription or translation can be prepared. For example, an expression vector encoding a CRSPR-Cas system or a portion thereof, e.g., a sgRNA or dCas9 can be prepared and introduced into a cell. Similarly, one or more expression vectors encoding an antisense RNA (e.g., shRNA) can be prepared and introduced into a cell. As described above, such expression vectors can include a constitutive or inducible promoter operably linked to the encoded RNA or protein. The expression vector can further encode polyadenylation sequences and/or selectable markers. The expression vector can be designed to facilitate insertion into the genome of the algal cell, e.g., by homologous recombination. Alternatively, the vector can propagate extrachromosomally.
D. Selection of Suitable Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cells
[0092] Algal cells exhibiting a stable pale green phenotype after random or directed mutagenesis, or after transcriptional or translational inhibition of one or more mRNA transcripts, can be assayed to ensure that the pale green phenotype is stable and is not due to poor health of the cells. For example, assays can be performed to rule out chlorosis or a defect in thylakoid, chloroplast, or photosystem assembly, such assays include measurement of photosystem II electron transport. For example, the algal cells exhibiting a stable pale green phenotype can be assayed to determine a Pmax value. Pale-green algal cells exhibiting a Pmax that is higher than wild-type algal cells and/or a Pmax value that is saturated at a higher irradiance level as compared to wild-type can be selected for use in the methods of the present invention. In some cases, pale green algal cells exhibiting wild-type, near wild-type, or supra wild-type growth and/or productivity, pale-green algal cells exhibiting a greater lipid content compared to a wild-type algal cell, or pale-green algal cells exhibiting a desirable lipid profile, including, but not limited to, a higher EPA content as compared to a wild-type cell can be selected.
[0093] In an exemplary embodiment, pale green algal cells of the present invention are selected using one or more of the following selections after alteration of the genome or inhibition of transcription or translation of one or more genes. Colonies can be analyzed for chlorophyll content, e.g., using a spectrophotometer or a spectrofluorometer to verify that the pale green phenotype is present. Re-plating and/or re-culturing can be performed to identify stable algal cell lines. Stable algal cell lines can be characterized to identify cells that exhibit at least wild-type growth under high light intensity on solid medium. Stable algal cell lines can be characterized to identify cultures that exhibit at least wild-type growth under medium and high light-intensity in liquid culture at lab scale. Chlorophyll deficient algal cells selected according to any one or more of the foregoing criteria can be further assessed in large scale cultures (e.g., open ponds).
E. Culturing Algal Cells
[0094] Described herein is a method of culturing a chlorophyll deficient algal cell. The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be cultured at a wide range of temperatures and culture media. For example, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be cultured between about 4° C. and about 40° C. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is cultured between about 15° C. and about 35° C. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is cultured at an average temperature of about 10, 12, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25° C. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is cultured at a temperature that is about 30° C., or less than about 30° C. (e.g., about 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, or 29° C.).
[0095] The chlorophyll deficient algal cell can be cultured in culture media having a wide range of salinity. For example, the salinity can range from 8 parts per thousand total dissolved solids or less to about 52 parts per thousand total dissolved solids or more. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is cultured in F2N2 media. In some cases, the chlorophyll deficient algal cell is cultured in F2N2 media at between about 25-28° C. under about 300 μmol photons/m2/s light intensity.
[0096] Algae can be cultured under conditions to promote the accumulation of algal oil high in EPA. In some cases, algae can be cultured under conditions to promote the accumulation of algal oil low in ARA. In some cases, algae can be cultured under conditions to promote the accumulation of algal oil that is free, or substantially free, of DHA. For instance, the lipid content and compositions can be modulated by varying growth conditions such as light intensity, light-dark cycles, temperature, nutrient content, nutrient availability, salinity, pH, culture density, culture temperature, and other environmental conditions. Descriptions of growth conditions for Nannochloropsis are found in, e.g., Sukenik, A. "Chapter 3: Production of eicosapentaenoic acid by the marine Eustigmatophyte Nannochloropsis," Chemical from Microalgae., ed. Zvi Cohen, CRC Press, 1999, and Pal et al., Appl Microbiol Biotechnol, 2011, 90:1429-1441. Standard culture systems such as open ponds, e.g., open race way ponds, and photobioreactors can be used to grow algae.
[0097] To generate an algal biomass, standard methods, e.g., flocculation, centrifugation, and filtration (dead end filtration, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, pressure filtration, and tangential flow filtration) can be used for dewatering algae. For instance, cationic chemical flocculants, such as Al2(SO4)3, FeCl3, and Fe2(SO4)3, can be used to coagulate harvested algae into a biomass.
[0098] The dried (dewatered) algal biomass may include at least about 10% lipids, e.g., about 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% or more lipid; at least about 15% carbohydrates, e.g., about 15%, 16%, 17%, 185, 19%, 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30% or more carbohydrates; at least about 25% protein, e.g., about 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 20%, 21%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40% or more protein; at least about 3% moisture, e.g., about 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20% or more water; and at least about 5% ash, about 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20% or more ash.
E. Preparing Crude Algal Oil from the Algal Biomass
[0099] The algae can be processed to obtain algal products such as one or more of algal oil, algal protein, or algal carbohydrates. The products can separated from the algal biomass by disruption methods that do not degrade the desired product. For instance, the algal cells of the biomass can be disrupted by, e.g., high-pressure homogenization, bead milling, expression/expeller press, sonication, ultrasonication, microwave irradiation, osmotic shock, electromagnetic pulsing, chemical lysis or grinding of dried algal biomass, to release the algal products (e.g., algal oil). Optionally, one or more products can be separated from the algal cell debris by, e.g., centrifugation. For example, centrifugation produces an oil layer and an aqueous layer containing the cell debris. The oil layer can be collected and further processed.
[0100] Other useful methods for extracting fatty acids from algae include, but are not limited to: Bligh and Dyer's solvent extraction method; solvent extraction with a mixture of ionic liquids and methanol; hexane solvent extraction; ethanol solvent extraction; methanol solvent extraction; soxhlet extraction; supercritical fluid/CO2 extraction; and organic solvent (e.g., benzene, cyclohexane, hexane, acetone, chloroform) extraction. See, e.g., Ratledge et al. "Chapter 13: Down-Stream Processing, Extraction, and Purification of Single Cell Oils," Single Cell Oils, ed. Zvi Cohen and Colin Ratledge, AOCS Press, Champaign, Ill., 2005. The extraction method may affect the fatty acid composition recovered from the algal biomass. For instance, the concentration, volume, purity and type of fatty acid may be affected.
[0101] In some embodiments, a polar solvent such as methanol or ethanol is used to extract the crude algal oil from an algal biomass, such as dried algal biomass. In some cases, it has been shown that ethanol extraction of fatty acids from algae can generate relatively high yields compared to other solvent-based methods.
[0102] After ethanol extraction, the extracted product can be further processed to remove water and polar components from the lipids. For example, as described in Fajardo et al., (Eur. J. Lipid Sci. Technol., 109 (2007) 120-126), the ethanol extract can be subjected to an apolar solvent extraction, e.g., hexane extraction to generate a biphasic extract containing a hexanic phase and a hydroalcoholic phase.
[0103] The extracted products may be processed using separation methods such as, but not limited to, distilling, decanting, and centrifuging. For example, the wet solids may be separated from the liquid fraction containing the crude algal oil. Alternatively, the ethanol extract can undergo an isolation step such as chromatography to produce a lipid-enriched composition. Additional methods and compositions for culturing algal cells and obtaining algal products are described in U.S. patent application Ser.

Example 2
Generation of a Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cell (T661)
[0129] The chlorophyll deficient algal strain T661 was generated according to the following random mutagenesis protocol.
[0130] Acridine mutagen ICR-191 was prepared as a stock solution of 1.0 mg/mL in 0.1 N HCL (filter sterilized). Nannochloropsis cells were grown to log phase. At a cell density of approximately 1×106 cells/mL, 20 mL of Nannochloropsis culture was placed into a 125 mL flask and the stock ICR-191 solution was added to a final concentration of 2 μg/mL. The flask was cultured under approximately 50 μmol photons/m2/s of irradiance in an orbital shaker at room temperature for 7 days. After the 7 day incubation period, the cells were washed 2× in F/2 media, spread onto solid F/2 agar, and incubated under 50 μmol photons/m2/s at 27° C.
[0131] After approximately three weeks, adequately sized colonies were observed and chlorophyll deficient colonies were selected based on their pale green color as compared to other colonies not exhibiting a pale green phenotype. The selected chlorophyll deficient colonies were re-suspended in F/2 media and re-plated onto fresh solid agar plates as described above. Selection of pale green colonies, re-suspension, and re-plating was repeated for at least two rounds to obtain stable clones that exhibit an absence of normally pigmented colonies or sectors after re-plating.
[0132] Stable, chlorophyll deficient mutants were tested in fluorescence assays to ensure that pigmentation deficiency was not due to poor health. For instance, the pale green (e.g., chlorophyll deficient) phenotype can be caused by various mutations involving nitrogen assimilation, chlorophyll biosynthesis, etc. Specifically, the inventors probed PSII electron transport essentially as described in Suggett, et al. "Estimating aquatic productivity from active fluorescence measurements." Chlorophyll a Fluorescence in Aquatic Sciences: Methods and Applications. Springer Netherlands, 2010. 103-127. See, also, Genty, et. al. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA)-General Subjects, 990.1 (1989): 87-92.
[0133] In brief, algal cells are grown to log phase in N2F2, 50% seawater medium under an irradiance of approximately 200 μmol photons/m2/s. Samples are assayed with a Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) Fluorometer. The relative electron transport rate (rETR) is calculated as rETR=PAR*ETR-Factor*PPS2/PPPS*Y(II), where PAR is flux of incident photosynthetically active radiation, ETR-Factor is fraction of incident photons absorbed by photosynthetic pigments, PPS2/PPPS is the fraction of photons absorbed by PSII relative to photons absorbed by photosynthetic pigments, and Y(II) is the effective photochemical quantum yield of PSII. Suitable values for ETR-Factor, and PPS2/PPPS are known in the art, or readily determined.
[0134] As shown in FIG. 4, as irradiance increases, the wild-type Nannochloropsis PSII electron transport rate (rETR) quickly saturates. In some cases, chlorophyll deficient strains displayed rETR curves substantially identical to the wild-type ETR curve. In other cases, chlorophyll deficient strains displayed even lower saturation levels and/or earlier photo-inhibition under low-irradiance conditions as compared to wild-type algal cells. In contrast, the chlorophyll deficient strain T661 saturates at a much higher level of irradiance and a much higher level of PSII rETR (FIG. 4).
Example 3
Growth of a Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cell (T661)
[0135] T661 was grown in 2.6 m2 outdoor ponds having an approximate volume of 650 liters in Northwestern Australia. Growth data was collected (FIG. 1). The chlorophyll deficient algal cells exhibited a productivity of up to 30-40 grams of dry weight algal cells per m2/day or higher.
[0136] T661 and wild-type algal cells were also grown in smaller ponds in Mexico (FIG. 2). In general, Mexico has less favorable culture conditions than observed in Australia. Nevertheless, over a period of 10 days, T661 averaged approximately 18 g/m2/d, while the wild-type parent Nannochloropsis algae averaged approximately 10 g/m2/d.
[0137] T661 algae cells were grown in approximately 1 acre open raceway ponds in Australia. EPA levels were determined by flame ion detection gas chromatography. The average EPA content across six one acre open raceway ponds was about 4.18% of the total biomass (FIG. 3).
Example 4
Genetic Characterization of a Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cell (T661)
[0138] Strain T661 was sequenced using a Genome Analyzer II platform. Polymorphism analysis was performed comparing T661 to two independent sequence data sets for the wild-type parent strain as well as the published genome of Nannochloropsis oceanica. In addition, the transcriptome of T661 was sequenced and used as a secondary reference for T661 polymorphisms.
[0139] Polymorphisms were categorized as follows:
[0140] a) Polymorphisms observed in the T661 genome that are polymorphic in comparison to the consensus sequence from three reference genomes.
[0141] b) Polymorphisms from category A that also occur in T661 transcripts (11).
[0142] c) Polymorphisms from category A that occur within 1 kb of an observed T661 transcript (40).
[0143] Polymorphisms from category B and C are more likely to lead to changes in protein expression that result in the pale-green phenotype. The polymorphisms from category B are provided as SEQ ID NOS:1-11. The polymorphisms from category C are provided as SEQ ID NOS:12-51.
Example 5
Transcriptional Analysis of a Chlorophyll Deficient Algal Cell (T661)
[0144] Wild-type Nannochloropsis (W2) and the chlorophyll deficient strain T661 (IC171) were grown to log-phase in F2N2 media and the mRNA was isolated. Next-generation sequencing and mRNA analysis were performed to identify transcripts that are selectively down-regulated in the chlorophyll deficient strain. Raw sequence reads of the wild-type and T661 datasets were assigned to a common reference sequence to quantify gene expression differences between the two strains (FIG. 5).
[0145] The top 10% differentially down-regulated genes in the chlorophyll deficient strain were categorized as Class 1 or Class 2 by homology via BLASTx. Class 1 genes are homologs clearly associated with chloroplast function. Class 2 genes are putative transcription factors that could directly impact the expression of one or more chloroplast genes. DNA encoding the down-regulated mRNA transcripts are provided by SEQ ID NOS:52-68. Down-regulation of the transcription, or translation of any one or more of SEQ ID NOS:52-68, in any combination can provide a chlorophyll deficient algal strain. Similarly, inhibition of the activity of a protein encoded by any one or more of SEQ ID NOS:52-68 can provide a chlorophyll deficient algal strain.
