Potential metabolic pathways for using C1/C2 chemicals for biosynthesis of lipids and omega-3 fatty acids. THF, Tetrahydrofolate; G3P, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; G6-P, glucose-6-phosphate; F6-P, fructose 6-phosphate; PEP, phosphoenolpyruvate; RuBisCo, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase. Multi-step reactions are presented by dashed arrows.
