Gene context of Nervonic acid

  • NA-binding to pol. beta could be stopped with a non-ionic detergent, but the binding to pol. alpha or HIV-RT could not [17].
  • Increased levels of 26:0 are accompanied by decreased nervonic acid biosynthesis in skin fibroblasts from ALD patients [3].
  • Among the C18 to C24 fatty acids examined, the strongest inhibitor was a C24 fatty acid, nervonic acid (NA), and the weakest was a C18 fatty acid, linoleic acid (LA) [17].
