Abstract excerpt
The mutation sites on the Delta12 desaturase gene in Mortierella alpina Delta12 desaturase-defective mutants SR88, TM912, and Mut48 accumulating Mead acid were identified. Each mutation resulted in an amino acid replacement (H116Y and P166L) in the Delta12 desaturase gene from SR88 and Mut48, respectively.
