Isolation and characterization of a starchless mutant of Chlorella pyrenoidosa STL-PI with a high growth rate, and high protein and polyunsaturated fatty acid content

The growth characteristics, biochemical composition and ultrastructure of a novel starchless mutant of Chlorella pyrenoidosa, designated as STL‐PI, are compared to the same characteristics of its parental strain, C. pyrenoidosa 82T. The STL‐PI mutant had a 22 ± 5% higher growth rate, and 24.5 ± 4.2% more protein than the parental strain, 82T. Furthermore, the STL‐PI mutant accumulated 20.4% more polyunsaturated fatty acids and 18% less saturated fatty acids than the parental 82T. When the parental 82T was cultured in a nitrogen‐free media, their starch content increased from 6.8 ± 2.8% to 22.5 ± 3.1%. In contrast, the STL‐PI mutant produced no starch, regardless of the growth conditions. Instead, the mutant cells responded to nitrogen limitation by further increasing their lipid content from 25.2 ± 1.2% to 38.0 ± 2.3% per dry weight. Transmission electron micrography revealed that nitrogen limitation typically stimulates the formation of starch granules in the chloroplast of 82T cells. Yet no starch granules were observed in the STL‐PI cells. Instead, only the formation of large lipid globules was observed in the mutant cells. These results demonstrate that the starchless mutant STL‐P1 possesses novel physiological and phytochemical properties distinct from the 82T cells: their cells were deficient in starch synthesis and showed higher growth rates and productivity than 82T cells.     

Ozone-induced ultrastructural changes in the plasma membrane of Chlorella sorokiniana

Abstract. Modifications in plasma membrane structure and permeability were observed in Chlorella sorokiniana following exposure to 0.2 gm⁻³(140 p.p.m.) O₃ for 30 min. Sixty-eight per cent of the cells were plasmolysed after 15 min O₃ exposure with disruption of organelles similar to that previously described in higher plants. Freeze-fracture exposed large areas of plasma membrane in 90% of the control cells and those exposed to O₃for short periods. After 20 min O₃ 90% of the cells cross-fracture, which indicates a change in molecular interactions in the membrane exposed to O₃ The earliest observed ultraslructural alteration is an aggregation of particles on the plasma membrane P face, statistically significant after 10 min O₃ Changes in ⁸⁶Rb influx occur during a similar time. After more extended exposure to O³ the plasma membrane P face shows regions of lipid phase transition to the crystalline state.     

Productivity of Chlorella sorokiniana in a short light‐path (SLP) panel photobioreactor under high irradiance

Maximal productivity of a 14 mm light‐path panel photobioreactor under high irradiance was determined. Under continuous illumination of 2,100 µmol photons m^?2 s^?1 with red light emitting diodes (LEDs) the effect of dilution rate on photobioreactor productivity was studied. The light intensity used in this work is similar to the maximal irradiance on a horizontal surface at latitudes lower than 37°. Chlorella sorokiniana, a fast‐growing green microalga, was used as a reference strain in this study. The dilution rate was varied from 0.06 to 0.26 h^?1. The maximal productivity was reached at a dilution rate of 0.24 h^?1, with a value of 7.7 g dw m^?2 h^?1 (m² of illuminated photobioreactor surface) and a volumetric productivity of 0.5 g dw L^?1 h^?1. At this dilution rate the biomass concentration inside the reactor was 2.1 g L^?1 and the photosynthetic efficiency was 1.0 g dw mol photons. This biomass yield on light energy is high but still lower than the theoretical maximal yield of 1.8 g mol photons^?1 which must be related to photosaturation and thermal dissipation of absorbed light energy.

Metabolic profiling reveals growth related FAME productivity and quality of Chlorella sorokiniana with different inoculum sizes

Inoculum size strongly affects cell growth and lipid accumulation of microalgae, one of the most potential biodiesel feedstock, however, the metabolic mechanism(s) of the lipid biosynthesis upon inoculum size has not been fully explored yet. The effects of inoculum size on cell growth, lipid accumulation, and metabolic changes of a green microalga Chlorella sorokiniana were investigated. In our experimental range of inoculum size, the productivity and the cetane number (CN) of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) increased with increasing initial cell density, and the inoculum of 1 × 10(7) cells mL(-1) processed much higher productivity (up to 2.02-fold) and CN (up to 1.19-fold) of the FAME than the others. A significant correlation between the metabolic profile and quantity and quality of lipid production was revealed by partial least-squares to latent structures (PLS) analysis, and 15 key metabolites were identified. Most of those metabolites were involved in the photosynthetically fixed carbon metabolism. Furthermore, light intensity as one of the vital limitation factors for the high inoculum size cultivation was evaluated by illumination assay and the results revealed that increasing light intensity could improve the polyunsaturated fatty acids composition and lipid accumulation of C. sorokiniana. The lipid productivity of the culture was improved by 71.21% with the light intensity of 110 μmol m(-2) s(-1), compared to that under the irradiance of 65 μmol m(-2) s(-1).     

Deep genomic analysis of the Chlorella sorokiniana SAG 211-8k chloroplast

The chloroplast genome contains information that is applicable in many scientific fields, such as plant systematics, phylogenetic reconstruction and biotechnology, because its features are highly conserved among species. To date, several complete green algal chloroplast genomes have been sequenced and assembled. In this study, the nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome (cpDNA) of Chlorella sorokiniana SAG 211-8k is reported and compared for the first time to the chloroplast genomes of 10 Chlorellaceae. The recently updated Chlorella sorokiniana cpDNA sequence, assembled as a circular map of 109?811 bp, encodes 113 genes. Similar to other Chlorella strains, this chloroplast genome does not show a quadripartite structure and lacks the large rRNA operon-encoding Inverted Repeat (IR). The Chlorella sorokiniana plastid encodes the tRNA(Ile)-lysidine synthetase (tilS), which is responsible for modifying the CAU anticodon of a unique tRNA. Gene ordering and clustering highlight the close relationships among Chlorella clade members and the preservation of crucial gene clusters in photosynthetic strains. The features of Chlorella sorokiniana presented here reinforce the monophyletic character of Chlorellaceae and provide important information that sheds light on chloroplast genome evolution among species of Chlorella.     

Composition of the sheath produced by the green alga Chlorella sorokiniana

AIMS: To investigate the chemical characterization of the mucilage sheath produced by Chlorella sorokiniana. METHODS AND RESULTS: Algal mucilage sheath was hydrolysed with NaOH, containing EDTA. The purity of the hydrolysed sheath was determined by an ATP assay. The composition of polysaccharide in the sheath was investigated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection. Sucrose, galacturonic acid, xylitol, inositol, ribose, mannose, arabinose, galactose, rhamnose and fructose were detected in the sheath as sugar components. Magnesium was detected in the sheath as a divalent cation using inductively coupled argon plasma. The sheath matrix also contained protein. CONCLUSIONS: It appears that the sheath is composed of sugars and metals. Mucilage sheath contains many kinds of saccharides that are produced as photosynthetic metabolites and divalent cations that are contained in the culture medium. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This is the first report on chemical characterization of the sheath matrix produced by C. sorokiniana.     

Photosynthetic efficiency of Chlorella sorokiniana in a turbulently mixed short light‐path photobioreactor

To be able to study the effect of mixing as well as any other parameter on productivity of algal cultures, we designed a lab‐scale photobioreactor in which a short light path (SLP) of (12 mm) is combined with controlled mixing and aeration. Mixing is provided by rotating an inner tube in the cylindrical cultivation vessel creating Taylor vortex flow and as such mixing can be uncoupled from aeration. Gas exchange is monitored on‐line to gain insight in growth and productivity. The maximal productivity, hence photosynthetic efficiency, of Chlorella sorokiniana cultures at high light intensities (1,500 μmol m^?1 s^?1) was investigated in this Taylor vortex flow SLP photobioreactor. We performed duplicate batch experiments at three different mixing rates: 70, 110, and 140 rpm, all in the turbulent Taylor vortex flow regime. For the mixing rate of 140 rpm, we calculated a quantum requirement for oxygen evolution of 21.2 mol PAR photons per mol O₂ and a yield of biomass on light energy of 0.8 g biomass per mol PAR photons. The maximal photosynthetic efficiency was found at relatively low biomass densities (2.3 g L^?1) at which light was just attenuated before reaching the rear of the culture. When increasing the mixing rate twofold, we only found a small increase in productivity. On the basis of these results, we conclude that the maximal productivity and photosynthetic efficiency for C. sorokiniana can be found at that biomass concentration where no significant dark zone can develop and that the influence of mixing‐induced light/dark fluctuations is marginal. © 2010 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Effect of inhibitors on ammonium assimilation in Chlorella sorokiniana in light and darkness

In N-sufficient cells of Chlorella sorokiniana Shihira and Krauss strain 211/8K (CCAP of Cambridge University), assimilation of ammonium was strictly dependent on light and CO₂, and was severely inhibited by 100 μ M atrazine or 10 μ M 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1, l-dimethylurea (DCMU). In N-limited cells, assimilation of NH₄⁺ took place at similar rates in both light and darkness, which were 1.6-fold higher than the rate of light-dependent assimilation by N-sufficient cells. Assimilation by N-limited cells was inhibited by l -methionine- dl -sulfoximine (MSX), but not by atrazine or DCMU.
The rate of photosynthetic O₂ evolution was 2.9±0.9 mmol ml⁻¹ packed cell volume (PCV) h⁻¹ in N-sufficient cells, and 0.64±0.12 mmol ml⁻¹ PCV h⁻¹ in N-limited cells. In the latter resupply of ammonium resulted in a rapid activation by 22%;, followed by a time-dependent increase of the photosynthetic O₂ evolution, which after 12 h reached the same rate as in N-sufficient cells.
Respiratory consumption of oxygen in darkness in N-sufficient and N-limited cells was 0.10±0.03 and 0.11±0.02 mmol ml⁻¹ PCV h⁻¹, respectively. Addition of ammonium was without effect on respiration of N-sufficient cells, but resulted in a 4-fold stimulation of respiration of N-limited cells. Such stimulation took place also in cells treated with DCMU, atrazine, or MSX, and it was also promoted by methylammonium. The stimulation of respiration lasted for several hours.
