Molecular Cloning And Functional Characterization Of A Novel Elovl (Elongase) Family From A Freshwater Teleost (Oreochromis Niloticus)

At present, seven members of ELOVL family (ELOVL1-7) have been identified in mammals. In terms of function, they are broadly divided into those that elongate the saturated fatty acids (SFA) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and those that elongate the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Recent...
