Molecular Identification and Functional Characterization of LC-PUFA Biosynthesis Elongase (elovl2) Gene in Chinese Sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) [PDF]
Elongases of very-long-chain fatty acids (Elovls) are critical rate-limiting enzymes that are involved in LC-PUFA biosynthesis through catalyzing the two-carbon elongation of a pre-existing fatty acyl chain. Thus far, several Elovls have been extensively

Structural Characterization and Glycosaminoglycan Impurities Analysis of Chondroitin Sulfate from Chinese Sturgeon. [PDF]
Chinese sturgeon was an endangered cartilaginous fish. The success of artificial breeding has promoted it to a food fish and it is now beginning to provide a new source of cartilage for the extraction of chondroitin sulfate (CS). However, the structural characteristics of sturgeon CS from different tissues remain to be determined in more detail.
