Fatty acids in the lipids of Drosophila heads: effects of visual mutants, carotenoid deprivation and dietary fatty acids.

Lipids - 1 Apr 1993

Stark W S, Lin T N, Brackhahn D, Christianson J S, Sun G Y

Abstract excerpt

Lipids of Drosophila heads were extracted and separated by high-performance thin-layer chromatography. Fatty acid compositions of major phospholipids as well as of triglycerides were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. Proportions of the major fatty acids (14:0, 16:0, 16:1, 18:0, 18:1, 18:2, 18:3) varied depending on the lipid analyzed. Docosahexaenoic acid (22:6), common in vertebrate photoreceptors and...
