Retention of fatty acyl desaturase 1 (fads1) in Elopomorpha and Cyclostomata provides novel insights into the evolution of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in vertebrates

BACKGROUND: Provision of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in vertebrates occurs through the diet or via endogenous production from C(18) precursors through consecutive elongations and desaturations. It has been postulated that the abundance of LC-PUFA in the marine environment has re...
