(Submitter supplied) Three acyltransferases, DGAT1, DGTT1, and PDAT1, are induced by nitrogen starvation and are likely to have a role in TAG accumulation based on their patterns of expression. Each gene also shows increased mRNA abundance in other TAG-accumulating conditions (-S, -P, -Zn, -Fe). Insertional mutants, pdat1-1 and pdat1-2, accumulate 25% less TAG compared to the parent strain, D66+, which demonstrates the relevance of the trans-acylation pathway in Chlamydomonas.
