摘要 |
The invention relates to methods for the production of unsaturated fatty acids, preferably conjugated multiple-unsaturated fatty acids such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) by transgenic expression of desaturases from insects of the Lepidoptera order. The invention also relates to transgenic expression cassettes for transgenic expression of desaturases from insects of the Lepidoptera order, and to transgenic organisms transformed therewith. |
