W08D2.4 Details | |||||
Description | The fat-3 gene encodes a delta-6 fatty acid desaturase ('linoleoyl-CoA desaturase') containing an N-terminal cytochrome b5 domain; FAT-3 expressed in yeast uses linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid as substrates; FAT-3 is absolutely required in vivo for synthesis of delta-6 fatty acids, and also required for fully normal synthesis of C20 fatty acids; FAT-3 is required for a normally fast growth rate and movement speed, and for normal defecation rhythms and fertility. | ||||
