Ontogenic Expression And Characterization Of The Longchained Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Enzyme, Elongase In Zebrafish

Ontogenic Expression And Characterization Of The Longchained Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Enzyme, Elongase In Zebrafish

The importance of long-chained polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) in vertebrates’ development has been widely studied. Among these, include roles in maintaining cellular membrane integrity, cellular signaling, gene regulation and metabolism. LC-PUFAs such as arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic ac...
