Abstract

Differentially expressed genes in Dunaliella salina grown under super saturated salt stress (5.5 m) were isolated by subtractive hybridization, cloned and classified for further biotechnological and industrial exploration. Sequence homology analysis showed that 26% of the library represented salt responsive genes for metabolic enzymes, viz., fructose-1,6-diphosphate aldolase (AldP), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, carbonic anhydrase, phosphoglycerate kinase etc., while 6% of library clones contained hypothetical/unknown genes. Six clones (8% of the library) contained genes that differentially expressed under salt stress, however, 6–8% of the library represented genes over expressed under salt stress and involved in photosynthesis, defense, cell rescue (chaperon/protease inhibitor) and protein sorting. About 39% were other genes of which 6% and 14% were transcription factors and house keeping genes (putative enzymes/signaling) respectively, while the remaining 19% of genes had miscellaneous functions.
