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 …

Very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) are important components of various lipid classes in
most organisms, from bacteria to higher plants and mammals, including humans. VLCFAs …

Artemia nauplii are widely used as live preys for feeding early life-cycle stages of marine
finfish and shrimp. However, a major drawback associated to using Artemia is their deficient …

Aquaculture supplies the world food market with a significant amount of valuable protein.
Highly productive aquaculture fishes can be derived by utilizing genome-editing methods …

To evaluate the fatty acid (FA) metabolism status and possibility as a DHA source of farmed
Onychostoma macrolepis, a total of 168 fish (2.03±0.23 g) were fed four diets supplemented …

Fatty acids play an important role in controlling the energy balance of mammals. De novo
lipogenesis also generates a significant amount of lipids that are endogenously produced in …

Elongation of very long-chain fatty acid (Elovl) proteins plays pivotal functions in the
biosynthesis of the physiologically essential long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC …

The biosynthetic capability of the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in
teleosts are highly diversified due to evolutionary events such as gene loss and subsequent …

The elongation of very long chain fatty acids (ELOVL) proteins are key rate-limiting enzymes
that catalyze fatty acid synthesis to form long chain fatty acids. ELOVLs also play regulatory …

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), including eicosapentaenoic acid and
docosahexaenoic acid, are the essential fatty acids for organs to maintain various biological …
