Abstract:
A method of producing lipids, containing the steps of: culturing an alga belonging to the genus Nannochloropsis; and producing fatty acids or lipids containing the same as components; wherein expressions of genes encoding a Δ12-desaturase and a Δ6-desaturase are enhanced in the alga; and a transformant of an alga belonging to the genus Nannochloropsis, wherein expressions of genes encoding a Δ12-desaturease and a Δ6-desaturease are enhanced.
