Functional Characterization of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Delta 6-Desaturase and Elongase Genes from the Black Seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii)
Fatty acid delta 6-desaturase (D6DES) and elongases are key enzymes in the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) including arachidonic acid (ARA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) from microorganisms ...

Identification and functional characterization of polyunsaturated fatty acid elongase (McELOVL5) gene from pike eel (Muraenesox cinereus)
The cDNA coding for a polyunsaturated fatty acid elongase (McELOVL5) was isolated from the brain of the pike eel (Muraenesox cinereus) being based on available sequences in 23 types of fish. Four sequence variant...

Isolation and functional characterization of polyunsaturated fatty acid elongase (AsELOVL5) gene from black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii)
To identify the genes encoding fatty acid elongases for the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), we isolated a cDNA via degenerate PCR and RACE-PCR from Acanthopagrus schlegelii with a high simila...

Functional characterization of a delta 6-desaturase gene from the black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegeli)
Delta 6-fatty acid desaturase (D6DES) is used in the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from microorganisms to higher animals, including arachidonic acid (ARA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). A ...
