  • Title: Cloning and characterization of a seed-specific omega-3 fatty acid desaturase cDNA from Perilla frutescens.
    Author: Chung CH, Kim JL, Lee YC, Choi YL.
    Journal: Plant Cell Physiol; 1999 Jan; 40(1):114-8. PubMed ID: 10189709.
    Abstract:
    A cDNA encoding omega-3 fatty acid desaturase was isolated from developing perilla seeds and characterized. On the basis of its deduced amino acid sequence comparison, this cDNA was assumed to be a new isoform of microsomal omega-3 fatty acid desaturase gene. Accumulation of the mRNA for this cDNA showed seed-specific expression.
