A cDNA encoding omega-3 fatty acid desaturase was isolated from developing perilla seeds and characterized. On the basis of its deduced amino acid sequence comparison, this cDNA was assumed to be a new isoform of microsomal omega-3 fatty acid desaturase gene. Accumulation of the mRNA for this cDNA showed seed-specific expression.
从发育中的紫苏种子中分离并鉴定了一个编码ω-3脂肪酸去饱和酶的cDNA。基于其推导的氨基酸序列比较,该cDNA被认为是微粒体ω-3脂肪酸去饱和酶基因的一个新亚型。该cDNA的mRNA积累表现出种子特异性表达。
