Lipid Synthesis and Beyond: SAD Fatty Acid Desaturases Contribute to Seed Development
Blog, Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefFatty acid (FA) desaturases have long been recognized as key enzymes in synthesizing lipids containing unsaturated FAs, which constitute the majority of seed oil. As a major class of FA desaturases, stearoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturases (SADs) catalyze the first desaturation step, producing the monounsaturated…
