doi: 10.1111/bcp.13496. Microalgae have been proposed as a source of feedstock for the production of biofuels such as biodiesel because of the high amounts of lipids, mostly FAs and WE, accumulated during the growth of some microalgal species (Matos, 2017). The direct contribution to prey capture represents a novel function . (2018a).

(2017). Only recently, it has been shown that microwave pretreatment of the granules can be used to enhance the activity of paramylon-degrading enzymes, yielding soluble immunostimulating hydrolysis products (Gissibl et al., 2018). 5, 205214. 28, 15871592. Its most studied wild-type strains are Z and bacillaris, but their discrimination by standard molecular methods is difficult.Therefore, we decided to test the suitability of MALDI-TOF MS (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry . 58, 532538. In recent years, the versatile phototrophic protist Euglena gracilis has emerged as an interesting candidate for application-driven research and commercialisation, as it is an excellent source of dietary protein, pro(vitamins), lipids, and the -1,3-glucan paramylon only found in euglenoids. doi: 10.1016/j.vetimm.2009.11.014, Sugiyama, A., Hata, S., Suzuki, K., Yoshida, E., Nakano, R., Mitra, S., et al.

Effect of mixed organic substrate on -tocopherol production by Euglena gracilis in photoheterotrophic culture. At this time, microalgae-derived biofuels are not economically feasible because they are not competitive with fossil fuels due to their higher production costs. Photosynthetic forms contain a chloroplast. 5, 503514. J. Plant Physiol. 37, 178185. We would like to thank the Macquarie University Microscopy Unit for its contribution to Figure 3. 173, 4656. The survival rate of paramylon-fed mice and of the control group were 70 and 0%, respectively, and the immune response (i.e., antibody titres, IL-2 production, natural killer cell cytotoxicity, and phagocytosis activity) was significantly increased in the group fed with paramylon. (2001). Immunopathol. There are several factors influencing -tocopherol levels in E. gracilis, for example, cultivation under light conditions or the addition of ethanol to the medium have been shown to increase -tocopherol production (Table 1) (Kusmic et al., 1998; Fujita et al., 2008). doi: 10.1016/j.copbio.2011.03.007, Psomiadou, E., Tsimidou, M., and Boskou, D.

Reports on industrial-scale HT cultivation of E. gracilis in controlled bioreactors have been only conceptual so far. Cultivation under strict HT conditions leads to increased paramylon levels during the exponential growth phase, while light has been shown to be detrimental to the accumulation and conservation of paramylon under MT growth, probably because the metabolic switch to paramylon degradation is under the influence of a photoreceptor (Kiss et al., 1986; Barsanti et al., 2001). doi: 10.1007/s00449-015-1363-1. Technol. Biochem. Eye Res. Cell Factories 12, 117. 7, 139147. The technical set-up of a cultivation also plays an important role in -tocopherol production, for example, hydrodynamic stress caused by fast stirring with baffled plates in a bioreactor cultivation has been shown to have a detrimental effect on the final yields of -tocopherol during HT cultivation (Ogbonna et al., 1998).

J. Vet. Single-cell analysis of morphological and metabolic heterogeneity in Euglena gracilis by fluorescence-imaging flow cytometry. Microbiol. The majority of the E. gracilis-derived lipids (WEs and FAs) are suitable for biodiesel production because they are saturated or have a low degree of unsaturation (Rosenberg, 1963; Tucci et al., 2010; Furuhashi et al., 2015). Therefore, protein sourced from E. gracilis could provide an alternative to supplement a vegetarian diet (US Department of Agriculture., 2018). 48, 17701775. Technol.

To circumvent this issue, a fed-batch two-step cultivation method with a transition from MT to PT growth conditions has been developed and shown to increase the -carotene titre per L culture more than 6-fold (Table 1) (Takeyama et al., 1997). (2004). For example, intracellular lipids of a mutant strain generated by Fe-ion irradiation of the WT parental strain were stained with a boron-dipyrromethene dye (BODIPY505/515) to isolate high-producers using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. 28, 423436.

Comparable levels of 40 mg/L culture or 3.7 mg/g DW were reached after a relatively short incubation time of 120 h using a bleached strain in HT batch cultivation with a medium supplemented with ethanol, glutamate and malate (Rodrguez-Zavala et al., 2010). Also, development of molecular tools for strain improvement are emerging rapidly, making E. gracilis a noteworthy challenger for microalgae such as Chlorella spp. Implications for the recognition of fungi by innate immunity. Accordingly, the cells synthesise FAs, fatty alcohols (FAlcs) and ultimately WEs in larger quantities from paramylon under oxygen-limiting conditions (Inui et al., 1984; Tucci et al., 2010; Furuhashi et al., 2015; Yoshida et al., 2016). doi: 10.1006/abbi.1999.1167, Wang, Y., Seppnen-Laakso, T., Rischer, H., and Wiebe, M.G. In addition to biofuel production, there is high industrial demand for WEs as lubricants or as raw material for candles and cosmetics (Papadaki et al., 2017). In the third step, WE synthesis from paramylon is induced by changing to anaerobic cultivation. Microalgal biomass is considered a third-generation biofuel feedstock, not only because of its potentially high lipid content, but also because of the high amounts of complex carbohydrates (e.g., cellulose) that can be produced by many algal species (Lee and Lavoie, 2013).

The methylerythritol phosphate pathway contributes to carotenoid but not phytol biosynthesis in Euglena gracilis. Deficiencies of this micronutrient can have severe health effects such as blindness in infants or an increased mortality rate during infections (Weber and Grune, 2012; Wiseman et al., 2017). They respond to light with photophobic responses, photokinesis and phototaxis, all of which can result in accumulations of the organisms in suitable habitats. Another way to produce biogas consisting mostly of methane from microalgal biomass is through anaerobic digestion by a consortium of microorganisms. Requirement for vitamin B1 for growth of Euglena gracilis. Biotechnol. Studies undertaken with porcine leucocytes, chickens (broilers) and fishes (e.g., rainbow trout, Nile tilapia, and red drum) have shown that supplementation of the medium with paramylon or inclusion of paramylon in a diet resulted in immunostimulatory and/or -regulatory activity on the cells or animals, with positive effects such as host protection against parasites (Sonck et al., 2010; Skov et al., 2012; Levine et al., 2018; Yamamoto et al., 2018a,b). 35, 7684.

Paramylon, which is exclusively found in euglenoids is already present in the market as a potent immunostimulatory agent. 78, 110. 293, 28652876. (1995). Abstract Motile microorganisms such as the green Euglena gracilis use a number of external stimuli to orient in their environment. Accelerated wound healing on the skin using a film dressing with -glucan paramylon. Biogas and bio-oil can also be produced from microalgal carbohydrates via thermochemical conversion processes like gasification at high temperatures or pyrolysis in the absence of oxygen, respectively (Behera et al., 2014). Only central enzymes/substrates/intermediates/products are shown. It is capable of photoautotrophic (using sunlight), heterotrophic (using an external carbon source), and mixotropic (combining both modes) growth (Rodrguez-Zavala et al., 2010; antek et al., 2010; Buetow, 2011). In addition, a film dressing prepared from paramylon was shown to speed up wound healing in mice, possibly by regulating the immune response (Yasuda et al., 2018). These complex carbohydrates can be hydrolysed chemically into their constituent monosaccharide units (e.g., glucose) for subsequent fermentation to bioethanol, or alternatively using enzymes, as harsh chemical conditions can interfere with fermentation (Mussatto et al., 2010; Chen et al., 2013; Al Abdallah et al., 2016).
