Improved genome sequence and annotation of Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosus ATCC 20509
Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosus is an oleaginous yeast with a high content of fatty acids and can accumulate more than 40% of its weight in lipids.  It can grow on a wide range of carbon sources and side streams such as crude glycerol.  The genome sequence of C. oleaginosus ATCC 20509 is reported here to contribute to its development as a biotechnological platform for producing microbial oils.
