• Characterization and modulation of gene expression and enzymatic activity of delta-6 desaturase in teleosts: A review (2011, background): “However, in humans (de Antueno et al., 2001) and mice (D'Andrea et al., 2002), the same enzyme serves for both reactions.”
• Conversion of alpha-linolenic acid to longer-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in human adults. (2005, background): “It is unclear whether the same enzyme is responsible for desaturation of αLNA and 24:5n-3 [42, 43].”
