Role of Snf-β in lipid accumulation in the high lipid‐producing fungus Mucor circinelloides WJ11

Abstract Background Mucor circinelloides WJ11 is a high-lipid producing strain and an excellent producer of γ-linolenic acid (GLA) which is crucial for human health. We have previously identified genes that encode for AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) complex in M. circinelloides which is an impor...
