Rapid induction of microsomal Δ12(ω 6)-desaturase activity in chilled Acanthamoeba castellanii [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1993 The activity of microsomal delta 12-desaturase in Acanthamoeba castellanii was increased after growing cultures were chilled from the optimal growth temperature (30 degrees C) to 15 degrees C. This increase was detectable in microsomes isolated from organisms subjected to only 10 min chilling. The mechanism of induction was investigated.

The desA gene of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803 is the structural gene for delta 12 desaturase [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1993 The desA gene of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803 was expressed in Escherichia coli, which does not contain any fatty acid desaturase. The product of the desA gene catalyzed the desaturation of fatty acids at the delta 12 position. This result demonstrates that desA is the structural gene for a delta 12 desaturase.

FADS Gene Cluster Polymorphisms: Important Modulators of Fatty Acid Levels and Their Impact on Atopic Diseases [PDF]
, 2009 Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) play an important role in several physiological processes and their concentration in phospholipids has been associated with several complex diseases, such as atopic disease.

Desaturase Genes And Their Use (Patent WO 1999/027111 A1) [PDF]
, 1999 cDNA encoding C. elegans DELTA desaturase has been cloned and sequenced, and the DELTA desaturase amino acid sequence has been determined. The C. elegans DELTA desaturase has a surprisingly low level of sequence identity with the known borage DELTA ...

Rapid and Transient Induction of a Parsley Microsomal [delta]12 Fatty Acid Desaturase mRNA by Fungal Elicitor [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1997 Abstract Treatment of cultured parsley (Petroselinum crispum L.) cells with a structurally defined peptide elicitor (Pep25) of fungal origin has previously been shown to cause rapid and large changes in the levels of various desaturated fatty acids.

Bioresource Technology, 2019 The oleaginous yeast Schwanniomyces occidentalis was previously isolated because of its excellent suitability to convert lignocellulosic hydrolysates into triacyl glycerides: it is able to use a broad range of sugars and is able to tolerate high concentrations of lignocellulosic hydrolysate inhibitors.
