An inducible and reversible system to regulate unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in <i>C. elegans</i>

2024-10-03

Abstract excerpt

Unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) play crucial roles in various physiological and pathological processes. In animals, these lipids are synthesized from saturated fatty acids through the action of delta 9 (Δ9) desaturases. In C. elegans , three Δ9 desaturases are encoded by the genes fat-5 , fat-6 , and fat-7 . The presence of multiple Δ9 desaturases has posed a significant challenge in developing a rapid and effi...
