Bio-Technology QUESTION #10598

Question 13

Single-cell oils (SCOs) accumulate in oleaginous microorganisms when:

Nitrogen is in excess relative to carbon in the growth medium
The carbon:nitrogen (C:N) ratio is high and nitrogen becomes limiting✔️
The culture is grown under strictly anaerobic conditions
Dissolved oxygen is maintained above 90% air saturation throughout

Correct Answer Logic:

Oleaginous microorganisms (e.g. Mortierella alpina, Thraustochytrids) accumulate lipids (>20% dry wt) when the C:N ratio is high — i.e. nitrogen is exhausted but carbon (glucose) remains available. Nitrogen limitation inactivates isocitrate dehydrogenase (via AMP depletion), causing citrate accumulation in the mitochondria. Citrate is exported to the cytoplasm and cleaved by ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) to supply acetyl-CoA for de novo fatty acid synthesis.
