The first genetic engineered system for ovothiol biosynthesis in diatoms reveals a mitochondrial localization for the sulfoxide synthase OvoA

Monia Teresa Russo et al.

Summary: Diatoms are abundant microalgae in the ocean and can fix 20% of CO2 on Earth. They have molecular biodiversity and unique metabolic activities, making them potential biofactories. They produce ovothiols, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The functional role of ovothiol biosynthesis in organisms is still largely unknown.

Ovothiol ensures the correct developmental programme of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus embryo

Alfonsina Milito et al.

Summary: This study investigates the biological relevance of ovothiol during sea urchin embryogenesis and the inflammatory response. It suggests that ovothiol may regulate cell proliferation in early developing embryos and play a key role in larval skeleton formation and inflammatory processes triggered by bacterial infection.

Microalgae-Based PUFAs for Food and Feed: Current Applications, Future Possibilities, and Constraints

Anna Santin et al.

Summary: Microalgae are considered valuable sources of compounds such as PUFAs for human and animal consumption. Culturing microalgae in open ponds is a common method for production, but it is more susceptible to contamination and lacks reproducibility. Genetic engineering techniques have improved, allowing for modified microalgae to accumulate specific compounds. However, these modified strains should be cultured in closed photobioreactors to minimize contamination and achieve higher yields. This review provides information on microalgae-derived commodities, with a focus on PUFAs, and discusses the challenges and possible solutions for large-scale production.

Highly Valuable Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids from Microalgae: Strategies to Improve Their Yields and Their Potential Exploitation in Aquaculture

Anna Santin et al.

Summary: Microalgae show great potential in the production of healthy food and feed supplements, with a focus on polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Research is centered on improving PUFAs production in microalgae through selecting the best species and strains, optimizing culturing conditions, and utilizing genetic and metabolic engineering techniques. Biotechnological applications of PUFAs from microalgae, such as aquafeed and food ingredients, are discussed, along with techniques for extraction and purification.

SLC25A39 is necessary for mitochondrial glutathione import in mammalian cells

Ying Wang et al.

Summary: SLC25A39 is identified as a regulator of GSH transport into mitochondria, and its loss affects mitochondrial GSH import and abundance without impacting cellular GSH levels. Its absence also leads to defects in the activity and stability of proteins containing iron-sulfur clusters, and mitochondrial GSH import is found to be essential for cell proliferation and red blood cell development.

Metabolic Adaptations to Marine Environments: Molecular Diversity and Evolution of Ovothiol Biosynthesis in Bacteria

Mariarita Brancaccio et al.

Summary: Research identified the distribution of ovothiol biosynthetic enzymes in bacteria through genomic and metagenomic data mining. These enzymes are mainly found in marine aerobic Proteobacteria, some of which establish relationships with other organisms. A horizontal gene transfer event of ovothiol biosynthetic enzymes was also discovered.
