Compartmentalization of stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 1 activity in HepG2 cells*

Compartmentalization of stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 1 activity in HepG2 cells*

Stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 1 (SCD1) catalyzes the conversion of stearate (18:0) to oleate (18:1n-9) and of palmitate (16:0) to palmitoleate (16:1), which are key steps in triglyceride synthesis in the fatty acid metabolic network. This study investigated the role of SCD1 in fatty acid metabolism...
