Patent abstract
Novel plant acyl-ACP thioesterase genes of the FatB and FatA classes and proteins encoded by these genes are disclosed. The genes are useful for constructing recombinant host cells having altered fatty acid profiles. Expression of the novel and/or mutated FATB and FATA genes is demonstrated in oleaginous microalga host cells. Furthermore, a method for producing an oil elevated in one or more of C12:0, C14:0, C16:0, C18:0 and/or C18:1 fatty acids includes transforming a cell with novel and/or mutated FATB and/or FATA genes, e.g., having an N-terminal deletion. The cells produce triglycerides with altered and useful fatty acid profiles.
