PpElo9
PpElo9 encodes ∆-9 elongase from Pavlova pinguis which functions in the Δ-9 elongase/desaturase pathway and could convert C18:2 to C20:2.
Characterization
Heterologous expression of PpElo9 could enable engineered Y. lipolytica to produce C20:2 fatty acids that couldn’t be produced in wild-type Y. lipolytica.
Literature
Petrie, JR described the isolation of three additional Delta 9-elongases from the class Haptophyceae and demonstrate that the Delta 9-elongase group contains highly conserved regions, which differentiate them from other ELO-type elongases.
