Additional Names:
acyl-CoA 6-desaturase;D6D;Delta(6) fatty acid desaturase;delta-6 fatty acid desaturase;delta-6-desaturase;DES6;FADSD6;linoleoyl-CoA desaturase (delta-6-desaturase)-like 2;LLCDL2;SLL0262;TU13.
Extra Details:
Component of a lipid metabolic pathway that catalyzes biosynthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) from precursor essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) linoleic acid (LA) (18:2n-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (18:3n-3). Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in this pathway which is the desaturation of LA (18:2n-6) and ALA (18:3n-3) into gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) (18:3n-6) and stearidonic acid (18:4n-3) respectively and other desaturation steps. Highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) play pivotal roles in many biological functions. It catalizes as well the introduction of a cis double bond in palmitate to produce the mono-unsaturated fatty acid sapienate; the most abundant fatty acid in sebum.
