). The omega-6 fatty acids comprise a second series of essential fatty acids for which the major dietary fatty acid is linoleic acid (LA; 18:2 omega-6), with smaller amounts of its elongation and desaturation ...
). These are made in the body from linolenic acid (18:3 n-3) in the diet, but most vegetable oils are rich in the omega-6 PUFA linoleic acid (18:2 n-6) and are a poor source of 18:3 n-3. The widespread use of plant ...
the validity of the findings. Protective associations were observed for DHA, a major component of brain phospholipids, with fish, its primary food source , and with α-linolenic acid , which is largely obtained ...
before calving may improve pregnancy rates in the upcoming breeding season. Supplementing postpartum diets with lipids high in linoleic acid can impede reproductive performance of beef cows. Precise ...
Abstract Nervonic acid (24:1) is a major component in nerve and brain tissues and it has important applications in food and pharmaceutical industries. Malania oleifera seeds contain about 40 ...
of linoleic acid to LA is catalyzed by fatty acid desaturase only as the lipid-bound form (Browse and Somerville, 1991), the step to release the LA from cellular lipids should be essential for the biosynthesis ...
, 2009). DHA is also important for neuron synthesis and infant brain development (Uauy et al., 2001, 2003). The conversion of SDA to EPA requires elongation of the fatty acid chain to C20 and Δ5 ...
of a suite of elongases and oxygen-dependent desaturases comprising six or more transgenes from fungal and algal sources that provides a pathway from native linoleic acid through to DHA. The alternative ...
glucose-rich media are replaced by limited carbon and nitrogen sources such as methanol and oleic acid (Chang et al., 1999), and mammalian peroxisome numbers are upregulated by a wide variety of fatty acids ...
