The functional expression in yeast of the Arabidopsis thaliana FAD2 gene, encoding the extraplastidial oleate desaturase (1-acyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine delta 12-desaturase) is reported. Dienoic fatty acids constituted up to 11% (w/w) of the total fatty acids in transformed Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells and were confirmed to be linoleic acid and delta 9, delta 12-hexadecadienoic acid by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
本文报道了拟南芥FAD2基因(编码质体外油酸去饱和酶,即1-酰基-2-油酰基-sn-甘油-3-磷酸胆碱δ12-去饱和酶)在酵母中的功能表达。在转化的酿酒酵母细胞中,二烯脂肪酸占总脂肪酸的比例高达11%(w/w),通过气相色谱-质谱联用技术证实其为亚油酸和δ9,δ12-十六碳二烯酸。
