Yeast lipid has gained prominence as a sustainable energy source and so various oleaginous yeasts are being investigated to create efficient lipogenic platforms. This review aims to assess the various biotechnological strategies for enhanced production of yeast lipids via agro-waste processing and media engineering including multiomic analyses, genetic engineering, random mutagenesis, and laboratory adaptive evolution. The review also emphasizes the role of cutting-edge omics technologies in pinpointing differentially expressed genes and enriched networks crucial for designing advanced metabolic engineering strategies for prominent oleaginous yeast species. The review addresses the challenges and future prospects of a viable lipid production industry that is possible through advancements in current technologies, strain improvement, media optimization and techno-economic and life cycle analyses at lab, pilot and industrial scales. This review comprehensively provides deep insights for enhancement of yeast lipid biosynthesis to reach industrially benchmarked standard of a lipid production platform.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are efficient and safe carriers for mRNA vaccines based on advanced ionizable lipids. It is understood that the pH-dependent structural transition of the mesoscopic LNP core phase plays a key role in mRNA transfer. However, buffer-specific variations in transfection efficiency remain obscure.

Background: Microdroplets have emerged as effective confined-volume reactors due to their remarkable ability to accelerate chemical reactions compared to bulk systems. Recent research highlights the crucial role of air-liquid interfaces in this acceleration. A microdroplet can be viewed as having two kinetically distinct regions: the interface and the interior.

Objectives: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) can silence disease-related genes through sequence-specific RNA interference (RNAi). Cationic lipid-based liposomes effectively deliver nucleic acids into the cytoplasm but often exhibit significant toxicity. This study aims to synthesize a novel ionizable lipid, Nε-laruoyl-lysine amide (LKA), from natural amino acids, constructed LKA-based liposomes, and perform physicochemical characterization and cell-based experiments to systematically evaluate the potential of these ionizable lipid-based liposomes for nucleic acid delivery.
