Fatty acid desaturase genes

Fig. 4. Modification of plant metabolic pathways for the synthesis of poly(3HAMCL) in peroxisomes. The pathways created or enhanced by the expression of transgenes (P. aeruginosa PHA synthase and C. lanceolata decanoyl-ACP thioesterase) and of mutant alleles of plant fatty acid desaturase genes are highlighted by bold arrows and the enzymes involved underlined...

Additionally, the study demonstrated that there are fatty acid metabolism genes that were positively associated with lovastatin production and tended to encode catabolic enzymes that are predicted to promote formation of the polyketide precursors acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, whereas fatty acid metabolism genes that are negatively associated with secondary metabolite production encode anabolic enzymes, i.e., acyl-CoA oxidase, fatty acid desaturase, and fatty acid synthases. [Pg.89]

Apart from the above mentioned enzymes, there also exist a few enzymes involved in PUFA metabolic pathways that have recently been found. One of them is a novel n-3 fatty acid desaturase, isolated from an EPA-rich fungus, Saprolegnia diclina [248]. The gene was isolated by PCR amplification from a fungus cDNA library and then, expressed in S. cerevisiae, which was cultured in the presence of several FA as substrates. The study showed that the recombinant protein could exclusively desaturase C20 n-6 PUFAs, with preference for AA which was converted into EPA. This represents a completely novel and different activity from any organism previously described, and its potential for use in EPA production in transgenic oilseed crops has been outlined. [Pg.359]
