ELOVL4: Very long-chain fatty acids serve an eclectic role in mammalian health and function

ELOngation of Very Long chain fatty acids-4 (ELOVL4) is an elongase responsible for the biosynthesis of very long chain (VLC, ≥C28) saturated (VLC-SFA) and polyunsaturated (VLC-PUFA) fatty acids in brain, retina, skin, Meibomian glands, and testes. Fascinatingly, different mutations in this gene hav...
