杜氏盐藻分子生物学最新进展及展望

杜氏盐藻是一种无细胞壁的单细胞双鞭毛真核藻类，是一种十分重要的藻类资源。过去对杜氏盐藻的研究多集中在形态学、耐盐机理及β-胡萝卜素等方面，近年来，随着藻类基因工程的快速发展，本研究课题组及国内外在杜藻盐藻分子生物学方面做了大量工作，现就杜氏盐藻在这一领域的研究进展进行综述，主要是重要功能基因的克隆与分析、杜氏盐藻调控序列的研究以及杜氏盐藻作为宿主表达外源基因等。

Prospect and Progress on Dunaliella salina in the area of Molecular Biology

Unicellular green alga, Dunaliella salina (D.salina), is a biflagellar alga without cell wall, which is a kind of very important eukaryotic microalga. In the previous study, the research of D.salina focus on the morphology, the mechanism of salt tolerance andβ-carotene， however, with the rapid development of microalgal biotechnique, a lot of work about D.salina was reported by our research groups and other researchers in the recent years. In the area of molecular biology, the studies of D.salina mainly place emphasis on the cloning and analysis of important functional genes, regulatory sequences, and the expression of foreign genes using D.salina as host. This review reports the research advance in these aspects.
