Abstract
Haematococcus pluvialis is a green microalga used in the algal biotechnology industry that can accumulate considerable amounts of storage triacylglycerol (TAG) and astaxanthin, which is a high-value carotenoid with strong antioxidant activity, under stress conditions. Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the last step of the acyl-CoA-dependent TAG biosynthesis and appears to represent a bottleneck in algal TAG formation. In this study, putative H. pluvialis DGAT2 cDNA (HpDGAT2A, B, D and E) were identified from a transcriptome database and were subjected to sequence-based in silico analyses. The coding sequences of HpDGAT2B, D, and E were then isolated and characterized through heterologous expression in a TAG-deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain H1246. The expression of HpDGAT2D allowed the recovery of TAG biosynthesis in this yeast mutant, and further in vitro enzymatic assays confirmed that the recombinant HpDGAT2D possessed strong DGAT activity. Interestingly, the recombinant HpDGAT2D displayed sigmoidal kinetics in response to increasing acyl-CoA concentrations, which has not been reported in plant or algal DGAT2 in previous studies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
