Are listed. Patent Document 1 also describes C. reinhardtii into which DGAT2 gene added with psaD is introduced, as in Non-Patent Document 1.
- the algae belonging to the genus Nannochloropsis has attracted attention for the production of TAG. Since this algae can be cultured at a density about 100 times that of C. reinhardtii, it is considered to be more suitable for TAG production than C. reinhardtii.

- the object of the present invention is to provide a means for efficiently accumulating TAG in algal cells under such a background.
- the present inventor first thought that there was a cause in the promoter that a sufficient amount of TAG was not accumulated in the conventional method. That is, although TAG is accumulated at the time of nutrient deficiency, we thought that a strong expression promoter such as psaD may not function sufficiently at the time of nutrient deficiency. Therefore, the idea of using a nutrient deficiency responsive promoter instead of a strong expression promoter was obtained.
- the present inventor examined the accumulation amount of TAG and the fatty acid composition of TAG under nitrogen deficient condition and phosphorus deficient condition. As a result, 1) When proliferating cells are transplanted, the amount of TAG accumulated is higher in phosphorus deficient conditions than in nitrogen deficient conditions.

- the cell suspension was placed in an electroporation cuvette (2 mm width), and a voltage was applied once at 11 kV / cm and a time constant of 12 msec.
- 1 mL of normal medium was added to the cuvette to suspend the cells, and then transferred to a 15 mL tube. Furthermore, 4 mL of normal medium was added to make the total volume 5 mL.
- the culture was swirled at 10 ⁇ E / m 2 / sec, 23 ° C. for 48 hours, added with 0.4 mL of INA Agar / f / 2 5 mL, and plated on a plate added with 2 ⁇ g / ⁇ L zeocin. It was allowed to stand at 20 to 30 ⁇ E / m 2 / sec at 23 ° C., and colonies that grew after 14 to 20 days were planted on a new zeocin-containing plate as transformants.
- the present inventor has also found that the amount of TAG accumulated under the phosphorus deficiency condition of N. 2145 exceeds C. reinhardtii.
- the amount of TAG accumulated per liter of culture medium in the first week of culturing under phosphorus-deficient conditions was 12 mg / L, twice that of C. reinhardtii cultured during the same period.
- N. 2145 can be cultured at a high density up to 1 ⁇ 10 9 cells / mL in a normal medium and 2 ⁇ 10 8 cells / mL in a phosphorus-deficient medium. This is 100 times the cell density of C. reinhardtii. It is expected that 1g or more of TAG can be obtained per liter of culture solution if planted in a phosphorus-deficient medium with high-density culture.
- DGAT Diacylglycerol acyltransferase
- DGAT is an enzyme that catalyzes the final step of TAG biosynthesis.
- DGAT is an enzyme widely present in animals and plants, and two types of DGAT1 and DGAT2 have been reported.
- C. reinhardtii is known to have one type of DGAT1 and five types of DGAT2 (DGTT1-5).
- DGTT1 shows changes in mRNA levels under nitrogen-deficient conditions
- DGTT2 and Regarding DGTT3 it has been reported that the amount of mRNA changes little under nitrogen-deficient conditions, and that DGTT5 is not expressed (Plant Physiol. 2010, Vol. 154, 1737-1752).
- the present inventor found a promoter pSQD2a that induces strong expression under phosphorus-deficient conditions, and has developed a method for promoting TAG accumulation by ligation to the DGTT4 gene (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2014-049651).
- the present inventor amplified the promoter region pCrSQD2a of SQD2a by PCR using the genome of C. reinhardtii as a template.
- the sequence of CrDGTT4 gene was obtained from the cDNA of C. reinhardtii at the time of phosphorus deficiency.
- pCrSQD2a was connected upstream of the CrDGTT4 gene to obtain pCrSQD2aCrDGTT4.
- a zeocin gene resistance gene S. hindustanus-derived ble was connected upstream for selection of mutant strains to obtain shblepCrSQD2aCrDGTT4. Referring to Kilian et al.
- a construct (control) in which only shble was inserted between the promoter of VCP2 of N.2145 and VCP1 3′UTR of N.2145 was used.
- a construct (R) in which pCrSQD2aCrDGTT4 was inserted in the reverse direction was also prepared (FIG. 5).
- the fatty acid composition of TAG under the phosphorus deficiency condition on the 4th day increased the ratio of C18: 1 in the strain in which CrDGTT4 gene expression was increased as compared with the wild strain and the control strain.
- CrDGTT4 has been reported to prefer C18: 1 as a substrate (Plant Cell 2013 2013 Feb; 25 (2): 677-93).
- This suggests that the combination of promoter pCrSQD2a and 3'UTR derived from N.2145 is suitable for greatly modifying the fatty acid composition of TAG from fatty acids contained in membrane lipids.
- the timing of fat accumulation can be controlled. It is suitable for the synthesis of novel fatty acids because it allows fat and oil accumulation while allowing cells to grow under phosphorus-deficient conditions. This is an effective method for accumulating useful special fatty acids.
- Example 2 In order to search for a promoter candidate derived from N. 2145 that responds to phosphorus deficiency, RNA was collected from cells on the 4th and 6th days of nutrient deficiency conditions, and quantitative RT-PCR was performed. In C. reinhardtii, increased expression of SQD2a was observed under phosphorus-deficient conditions, so the gene expression of N. 2145 homologous genes SQD2A, SQD2B, and SQD2C was examined. In addition, from a previous paper (Plant Physiology, April 2012, Vol. 158, pp.

- LPAT-Y, SQD2-A, and SQD2-B increased in expression under phosphorus deficiency
- LDSP increased in expression under phosphorus deficiency and nitrogen deficiency
- 11 types of DGAT2 DGAT2A to DGAT2K
- 2 types of DGAT1 of N. 2145 was also examined, but no increase in expression was observed as in the above 4 genes. Therefore, about 1 kb of the promoter region of the above 4 genes was designated as promoters pNLPATY, pNSQD2A, pNSQD2B, pNLDSP derived from N. 2145 that induces strong expression under phosphorus-deficient conditions.
- the present inventors amplified the LPAT-Y and SQD2-B promoter regions pNLPATY and pNSQD2B, whose expression was elevated under phosphorus-deficient conditions, by PCR using the N.2145 genome as a template.
- pNLPATY and pNSQD2B were connected upstream of the CrDGTT4 gene instead of pCrSQD2a to obtain pNLPATYCrDGTT4 and pNSQD2BCrDGTT4 (FIG. 13).

- CrDGTT4 gene expression was not confirmed in wild and control strains, and expression of CrDGTT4 was confirmed in transformants pLPATY-1, pLPATY-2, pLPATY-3, pSQD2B-1, pSQD2B-2, and pSQD2B-3 (Fig. 14).
- the cells were cultured in a phosphorus-deficient medium (200 ⁇ l), and the cells were collected on the fourth day of phosphorus deficiency, and the amount of accumulated TAG was examined (FIG. 15). From FIG. 15, it was found that TAG was accumulated in the transformants pLPATY-3 and pSQD2B-1 in which CrDGTT4 gene expression was elevated under the phosphorus deficient condition than in the wild type. From this, it can be said that this method using the promoter region of a gene that responds to phosphorus deficiency conditions for gene expression for TAG production is a method that can accumulate lipid efficiently in a short period of time.

(1)トリアシルグリセロール合成酵素遺伝子、
(2)トリアシルグリセロール合成酵素遺伝子の上流に配置されるリン欠乏応答プロモーター。
(1)従来知られている藻類よりも、多くのTAGを蓄積する。
(2)TAG合成酵素遺伝子はリン欠乏応答プロモーターの制御下にあるので、通常培養時にこの遺伝子は強発現しない。このため、TAG蓄積のタイミングをコントロールすることができる。
(3)通常条件に比べて増殖効率は低下するものの、リン欠乏条件下でもある程度の細胞増殖は可能なので、細胞を増殖させながら、TAGを蓄積させることも可能である。
(4)蓄積されるTAG中の脂肪酸は、既に合成されている脂質(葉緑体の脂質など)に由来するものではなく、新たに合成されたものなので、有用な特殊脂肪酸の生産にも有用である。

(1)TAG/膜脂質合成系の制御検討
モデル藻類C. reinhardtiiでの脂質蓄積に関する知見として、窒素欠乏条件下で脂質が蓄積すること、脂質の中では貯蔵脂質であるTAGが蓄積すること、飽和脂肪酸の割合が増えることが報告されている(BMC Biotechnol. 2011; 11: 7.)。本発明者は対数増殖期の細胞をリン欠乏条件下におくと脂質蓄積がおこることを見出した(特開2014-049651)。超微細藻類であり、オイル高生産能がある真正眼点藻N. 2145でも同様にリン欠条件下での脂質蓄積を調べた。
C. reinhardtiiでの脂質蓄積の結果をふまえ、増殖が盛んな対数増殖期 (1×107 cells/mL) のN. 2145を用いて窒素欠乏条件、リン欠乏条件の比較を行った。
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT)はTAG生合成の最終ステップを触媒する酵素である。DGATは動物、植物に広く存在する酵素であり、DGAT1, DGAT2の2種類が報告されている。
図5のコンストラクトをN. 2145へ形質転換し、ゼオシンで選抜後、control株とF株については形質転換株を20~30株得た。R株は4株得られた。リン欠乏条件5日目の形質転換株から回収したRNAを用いて、定量RT-PCRを行い、CrDGTT4遺伝子の発現上昇が確認された株をさらに選抜した。野生株、control株、R株ではCrDGTT4遺伝子発現上昇は確認されなかった(図6)。このことから、プロモーターpCrSQD2aとN.2145由来の3'UTRの組み合わせは間に挟んだ遺伝子の発現上昇に有効であると考えられる。
リン欠乏に応答するN. 2145由来のプロモーター候補を探すために、栄養欠乏条件4日目、6日目の細胞からRNAを回収し、定量RT-PCR法を行った。C. reinhardtiiではリン欠乏条件下でSQD2aの発現上昇が見られたので、N. 2145の相同遺伝子であるSQD2A,SQD2B,SQD2Cの遺伝子発現を調べた。また、先行論文(Plant Physiology, April 2012, Vol. 158, pp. 1562-1569)から、LDSP(lipid droplet surface protein)の高発現が予想され、LPATについても本発明者の所属する研究室の先行研究より高発現が予想されたので、遺伝子発現を調べた。このとき、アクチンの発現をコントロールとした。
