The codon-optimized Δ(6)-desaturase gene of Pythium sp. as an empowering tool for engineering n3/n6 polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

BACKGROUND: The ∆(6)-desaturase gene, encoding a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids, has potential in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. RESULTS: The ∆(6)-desaturase gene has been isolated from a selected strain of Oomycetes, Pythium sp. BCC53698. The cloned ge...
