The Development of a Thermodynamic Model for Antisense RNA Design and an Electro-transformation Protocol to Introduce Auxotrophic Genes for Enhancing Eicosapentaenoic Acid Yield from Pythium irregulare

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5, n-3) is a long chain crucial unsaturated fatty acid, essential for the regulation of critical biological functions in humans. Its benefits include the therapeutic treatment of cardiovascular disease, schizophrenia and Alzheimerâ s disease. The fungus Pythium irreg...
