High impact information on Erucyl-coa

On the other hand, in transgenic high-erucic-acid rapeseed plants the increase in erucic acid level was at most 60% although the chimeric Bn-FAE1.1 gene was co-expressed with an erucoyl-CoA-specific lysophosphatidate acyltransferase gene enabling trierucoyl glycerol to accumulate in the seed oil [1].
Incubation of mitochondria with erucoyl-carnitine led to about 2/3 of all CoA being sequestered in the form of acid-insoluble esters (probably erucoyl-CoA) [2].
Nervonic acid biosynthesis by erucyl-CoA elongation in normal and quaking mouse brain microsomes. Elongation of other unsaturated fatty acyl-CoAs (mono and poly-unsaturated) [3].
