Identification of two novel microalgal enzymes involved in the conversion of the ω3-fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, into docosahexaenoic acid

Marine microalgae such as Pavlova and Isochrysis produce abundant amounts of the ω3-PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids), EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid, 20:5n–3) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid, 22:6n–3). The pathway leading to the conversion of EPA into DHA in these lower eukaryotes is not well establish...
