Composition and biosynthesis of fatty acids in Pyramimonas grossii

The green algaPyramimonas grossii orginating in the coastal waters of the Atlantic Ocean Argentina was subcultured until a monoalgal culture was obtained. The fatty acid composition of the alga grown in a mineral medium at 12 C was determined by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) on 2 columns. The majo...

description The green algaPyramimonas grossii orginating in the coastal waters of the Atlantic Ocean Argentina was subcultured until a monoalgal culture was obtained. The fatty acid composition of the alga grown in a mineral medium at 12 C was determined by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) on 2 columns. The major fatty acids were oleic, linoleic, palmitic and α-linolenic acids, but the 20-carbon polyunsaturated acids, 20∶4ω6 and 20∶5ω3, respectively, belonging to the linoleic and α-linolenic series, were also found. Incubation with [14C] oleate, [14C] acetate, [14C] linoleate and [14C] α-linolenate suggests that linoleate is not directly converted to α-linolenate. [14C] Acetate was easily converted to palmitic, palmitoleic and oleic acids. However, after 48 hr of incubation, only traces of radioactivity were detected in linoleic acid and no label was found in α-linolenic acid.
