MUMBAI, India, Aug. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617038132 A) filed by Phykion Inc. on March 27, 2026, for Recombinant Algae Having High Biomass And Lipid Productivity.

Inventors include Moellering, Eric; and Moosburner, Mark.

The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.

Abstract: The invention provides a recombinant photosynthetic organism that has been genetically modified in a gene encoding a protein kinase-like protein. The recombinant organism exhibits higher biomass productivity and higher lipid productivity versus a corresponding control algal organism not having the genetic modification. The recombinant organism is therefore useful in applications requiring biomass and/or lipid productivity, e.g., in the production of biofuels or other lipidic matter. Methods of using the organism and biomass containing or produced by the organism are also provided.
