Biosynthesis of LC-PUFA in Ruditapes philippinarum: Cloning and tissue distribution of Fad and Elovl, and effects of microalgae diets varied in LC-PUFA composition on their expressions and fatty acids profile of this bivalve
To reveal the biosynthetic pathway of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in Ruditapes philippinarum, herein, two fatty acid desaturases (Fads, including one Δ5 Fad and one Δ6 Fad-like) and three elongases of very long-chain fatty acids (Elovls, including one Elovl2/5 and two Elovl4-lik...
