Record overview

LMPD IDLMP010710
Gene ID820387
SpeciesArabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis)
Gene Nameomega-6 fatty acid desaturase
Gene SymbolFAD2
SynonymsDELTA-12 DESATURASE; FAD2; fatty acid desaturase 2
Alternate namesomega-6 fatty acid desaturase
Chromosome3
EC Number1.14.19.-
SummaryMajor enzyme responsible for the synthesis of 18:2 fatty acids in the endoplasmic reticulum. Contains His-rich motifs, which contribute to the interaction with the electron donor cytochrome b5. Mutations in this gene suppress the low temperature-induced phenotype of Arabidopsis tocopherol-deficient mutant vte2.
