The yellow-green alga Trachydiscus minutus (Eustigmatophyceae, Heterocontophyta) was cultivated in a standard medium and under nitrogen- and phosphorus-starvation and its triacylglycerols were analyzed by RP-HPLC/MS-APCI. The molecular species of triacylglycerols included a total of 74 triacylglycerols having at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid. Polyunsaturated triacylglycerols were identified for the first time in a yellow-green alga. N-starvation brought about a nearly 50% drop in TAGs containing EPA, and also decreased TAGs containing ARA, while P-starvation had a sizable effect on those TAGs that contain two or three arachidonic acids. In four TAGs containing PUFA, i.e. EEE, EEA, EAA and AAA, N-starvation caused a rapid fivefold increase in ARA content and the ratio of TAGs containing ARA, i.e. AEE to AAA increased tenfold relative to control. Regioisomeric characterization of triacylglycerols containing palmitic, arachidonic (ARA) and eicosapentaenoic acids (EPA) showed that the proportion of positional isomers is affected by N- and P-starvation. N- and P-starvation also changed the ratio of symmetrical to asymmetrical TAGs. Positional isomers exhibited identical ratios of symmetrical and asymmetrical TAGs irrespective of the type of FAs. In control cultivation the major TAGs with a single PUFA were symmetrical ones (PEP or PAP) whose ratio to asymmetrical counterparts (PPE or PPA) was about 3:1, whereas N- and P-starvation yielded opposite ratios, 1:3-1:5. The control cultivation yielded ~90% asymmetrical TAGs with two PUFAs (i.e. PEE and PAA), whereas with N- and P-starvation the ratio of symmetrical to asymmetrical TAGs increased to 2:1 and 3:2, respectively.
