Title: Agents for enhancement of production of biofuel precursors in microalgae

Abstract

We identified 17 transcription factor genes that regulate lipid production and activity in an organism. We subsequently detailed characterization of one of them (psr1). Constructs, methods and systems for enhancing or increasing lipid production in an organism are described.
