Regulatory Factors Controlling Oil Biosynthesis In Microalgae And Their Use

The production of transgenic plant oils is described by transfecting plant host cells with heterologous transcription inducers. Such inducers are specific for endogenous biosynthetic plant oil genes, such that the inducers induce an overexpression of the plant oil genes. The overexpressed gene product (i.e., for example, diacylglycerol transferase) thereby results in a increased intracellular production of a plant oil (i.e., for example, triacylglycerol). In one embodiment, the transfected plant host cell can be a plant algae species (i.e., for example, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii).
