additional information generation of DGAT2 overexpressing cells of Nannochloropsis oceanica, expression analysis and lipid content determination, overview. The introduced transgene DGAT2 is successfully integrated,transcribed and translated in the transformed algal cells. The overexpressed DGAT2 does not have apparent effects on the growth and biomass accumulation of the engineered microalgae, analysis of neutral lipid content. There is a variation in terms of fatty acid composition between the engineered and wild-type cells. Saturated fatty acid (SFAs) content is significantly increased by 53.1% in engineered lines compared to wild-type. On the other hand,monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) decrease by 52.9% in engineered cells. Similarly, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) show an apparent decrease of 74.6%, including arachidonic acid (C20:4) and EPA (C20:5) in engineered cells Nannochloropsis oceanica
