[HTML][HTML] Desaturases and elongases involved in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in aquatic animals: From genes to functions
Marine ecosystems are rich in “omega-3” long-chain (C 20-24) polyunsaturated fatty acids
(LC-PUFA). Their production has been historically accepted to derive mostly from marine …
