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...
