Developing a versatile and efficient microbial PUFA producer (MicroPUFA)

Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

Polyunstaurated fatty acids are long chain fatty acids that include among them the essential omega-3 (n-3) and omega-6 (n-6) acids. The requirement for humans to ingest these as part of a balanced diet is due to the inability to synthesise the pre-cursors of these compounds, linolenic acid (n-3) and linoleic acid (n-6). Once ingested these pre-cursors are then metabolised into a number of key comp ...
