Metabolic Engineering and Oil Supplementation of Physcomitrella patens for Activation of Cââ Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Production
2012-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Long chain (C â¥Â 20) polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) represent important components of the human diet. Currently, the predominant sources of these fatty acids are marine fish and algal oils, but high production costs and diminishing feedstock, limit their supply and usage. A more regular sustainable source of these compounds is urgently required and therefore research is being conducted to develop a sust...
