Hnf4α Is Involved in LC-PUFA Biosynthesis by Up-Regulating Gene Transcription of Elongase in Marine Teleost Siganus canaliculatus

The rabbitfish Siganus canaliculatus is the first marine teleost shown to be able to biosynthesize long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) from C18 PUFA precursors catalyzed by two fatty acyl desaturases (fad) including Δ4 Fad and Δ6/Δ5 Fad as well as two elong...
