Phaeodactylum tricornutum | expression is significantly upregulated at both the mRNA and protein levels during triacylglycerol accumulation | up |
General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | inhibition of MCC2 expression by RNA interference disturbs the flux of carbon (mainly in the form of leucine) toward branched-chain amino acid degradation, resulting in decreased triacylglycerol accumulation. MCC2 inhibition also gives rise to incomplete utilization of nitrogen, thus lowering biomass during the stationary growth phase | Phaeodactylum tricornutum |
