Figure 5

Triacylglycerol biosynthesis pathway reconstructed based on the de novo assembly and annotation of D. tertiolecta transcriptome. Identified and unidentified enzymes are shown in solid and dashed boxes, respectively, and include: GK, glycerol kinase (EC: 2.7.1.30); GPAT, glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (EC: 2.3.1.15); AGPAT, 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (EC:2.3.1.51); PP, phosphatidate phosphatase (EC: 3.1.3.4); DGAT, diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (EC: 2.3.1.20); and PDAT, phopholipid:diacyglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.158). Key enzymes are shown with an asterisk next to the boxes, and dashed arrows denote reaction(s) in which the enzymes are not shown.
