Role of a new mammalian gene family in the biosynthesis of very long chain fatty acids and sphingolipids.

The Journal of cell biology - 1 May 2000

Abstract excerpt

Whereas the physiological significance of microsomal fatty acid elongation is generally appreciated, its molecular nature is poorly understood. Here, we describe tissue-specific regulation of a novel mouse gene family encoding components implicated in the synthesis of very long chain fatty acids....
