Tung tree stearoyl‐acyl carrier protein Δ9 desaturase improves oil content and cold resistance of Arabidopsis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The seed oil of tung tree is rich in a-eleostearic acid (ESA), which endows tung oil with the characteristic of an excellently dry oil. The stearoyl-acyl carrier protein δ9 desaturase (SAD) is a rate-limiting enzyme that converts the stearic acid to the oleic acid, the substrate for the production o...
