Here, we examined the effects of low (15 \u00b0C), optimal (25 \u00b0C), and high (35 \u00b0C) temperatures on the GABA shunt in Isochrysis zhanjiangensis during the initial and mid-exponential growth phases. The results demonstrated that temperature stress significantly inhibited cell growth and photosynthetic efficiency (assessed by Fv\/Fm and Fv\u2019\/Fm\u2019), with soluble protein decreasing and soluble sugar accumulating. During the initial exponential phase, both low and high temperature stress triggered marked GABA accumulation, accompanied by coordinated increases in glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) and diamine oxidase (DAO) activities. Interestingly, the transcript levels of IzGAD and IzDAO decreased under these conditions, suggesting that GABA accumulation at this stage is predominantly governed by post-translational activation rather than transcriptional upregulation. Upon entry into the mid-exponential phase, a distinct phase-dependent shift in GABA biosynthetic regulation emerged. Under low temperature stress, GAD activity and IzGAD expression were both suppressed, whereas DAO activity and IzDAO transcripts increased significantly, indicating the transition to DAO-mediated GABA production as the dominant route. Under high temperature stress, both GAD and DAO activities increased, yet their corresponding gene transcription remained repressed, revealing a persistent asynchrony between enzyme activities and gene expression across both phases. Meanwhile, the expression of catabolic genes (IzGABA-T, IzSSADH1, and IzSSADH2) was consistently downregulated, further facilitating the net accumulation of GABA. Promoter analysis revealed multiple stress- and hormone-responsive cis-elements in these genes, implying a complex regulatory network. Collectively, our findings uncover a growth-phase-dependent reconfiguration of GABA biosynthetic pathways in I. zhanjiangensis under temperature stress. These insights provide a mechanistic basis for strain-specific temperature management in aquaculture applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/microorganisms14092014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,10]],"date-time":"2026-09-10T13:04:57Z","timestamp":1789045497000},"page":"2014","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Growth-Phase-Dependent Shift in GABA Biosynthetic Pathways Under Temperature Stress in Isochrysis zhanjiangensis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Jiansen","family":"Luo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"validation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"visualization","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Lin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"supervision","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Jichang","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Food Science and Engineering, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315211, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Yumeng","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Jiaxin","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Jingbo","family":"Fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"software","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Lulu","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Jiayi","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Kehou","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laoshan Laboratory, Qingdao 266237, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4496-6937","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jilin","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Marine Sciences, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315832, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"funding-acquisition","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"resources","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2025, May 28).
