Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and aquaculture in perspective (2015, background): “However, the DHA pathway from EPA is probably functional in most teleost fish, including marine species, at least in some tissues such as brain (Tocher et al., 2006; Zheng et al., 2009; Monroig et al., 2011a).”
Characterization and modulation of gene expression and enzymatic activity of delta-6 desaturase in teleosts: A review (2011, background): “, 2006a), cobia Rachycentron canadum (Zheng et al., 2009), and sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax (González-Rovira et al.”
Expression of fatty acyl desaturase and elongase genes, and evolution of DHA:EPA ratio during development of unfed larvae of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus L.) (2011, background): “However, Elovl5 enzymes in fish have activity towards C22 462 PUFA (Zheng et al., 2004, 2009; Mohd-‐Yusof et al., 2010), in contrast to mammalian Elovl5 that 463 has very low or no activity towards C22 PUFA (Leonard et al., 2000; Inagaki et al., 2002).”
