Abstract excerpt
Very long-chain fatty acid elongase-1 (ELOVL1) is essential for fatty acid elongation and is widely expressed in numerous tissues, including the central nervous system, being involved in the elongation of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), which are essential for biological processes such as myelin formation. Monoallelic pathogenic variants in ELOVL1 have been described in association to a condition...
