Provision of carbon skeleton for lipid synthesis from the breakdown of intracellular protein and soluble sugar in Phaeodactylum tricornutum under high CO(2)
BACKGROUND: Increasing CO(2) emissions have resulted in ocean acidification, affecting marine plant photosynthesis and changing the nutrient composition of marine ecosystems. The physiological and biochemical processes of marine phytoplankton in response to ocean acidification have been reported, bu...

Cell composition changes during culture time were investigated. The (13)C isotope tracing technique was used to determine fractional labeling enrichments for the main cellular components. The results suggested that when lipid content increased significantly under high CO(2) conditions, total protein and soluble sugar contents decreased. The (13)C labeling experiment indicated that the C skeleton needed for fatty acid C chain elongation in lipid synthesis under high CO(2) conditions is not mainly derived from NaHCO(3) (carbon fixed by photosynthesis). CONCLUSION: This study indicated that breakdown of intracellular protein and soluble sugar provide C skeleton for lipid synthesis under high CO(2) concentration.
