Role of Ferredoxin and Flavodoxins in Bacillus subtilis Fatty Acid Desaturation

The Bacillus subtilis acyl lipid desaturase (Δ5-Des) is an iron-dependent integral membrane protein able to selectively introduce double bonds into long-chain fatty acids. In the last decade since its discovery, the molecular mechanism of Δ5-Des expression has been studied extensively. However, the...
