Desaturases and elongases involved in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in aquatic animals: From genes to functions

O. Monroig et al.

Summary: Traditional belief holds that marine microbes are the primary producers of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in marine ecosystems. However, recent studies have challenged this belief by discovering that many aquatic animals also have the enzyme machinery necessary for de novo biosynthesis of PUFA and LC-PUFA. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the genes and proteins involved in LC-PUFA biosynthesis in aquatic animals, particularly invertebrates and fish. It concludes that invertebrates and fish have different, yet active, LC-PUFA biosynthetic gene networks that result from complex evolutionary processes and functional diversification.

Biosynthesis of Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Marine Gammarids: Molecular Cloning and Functional Characterisation of Three Fatty Acyl Elongases

Alberto Ribes-Navarro et al.

Summary: The study revealed that gammarids have at least three distinct Elovl genes, with Elovl4 and Elovl1/7-like playing key roles in polyunsaturated fatty acid elongation, while Elovl6 does not play a major role in LC-PUFA biosynthesis in gammarids.

Regulation of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in teleost fish

Dizhi Xie et al.

Summary: This article reviews progress on LC-PUFA biosynthesis in teleosts, focusing on the identified Fads and Elovl, as well as the regulatory mechanisms at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Insights into improving endogenous LC-PUFA biosynthesis capacity to reduce dependence on fish oil while maintaining or increasing flesh LC-PUFA content and the nutritional quality of farmed fish are provided.

Naoki Kabeya et al.

Summary: This study revealed that Tigriopus californicus, an intertidal harpacticoid copepod, has complete n-3 LC-PUFA biosynthetic pathways, enabling the production of essential fatty acids needed by higher trophic levels.

Evolution and Functional Characteristics of the Novel elovl8 That Play Pivotal Roles in Fatty Acid Biosynthesis

Shouxiang Sun et al.

Summary: The study revealed that Elovl8 is not unique to teleosts, but has a wide phylogenetic distribution. Through the use of CRISPR/Cas9 technology, it was demonstrated that Elovl8a and Elovl8b play important roles in fatty acid elongation. Further experiments showed the substrate preferences and capabilities of these enzymes in fatty acid biosynthesis.
