Bioconversion From Docosahexaenoic Acid to Eicosapentaenoic Acid in the Marine Bacterium Shewanella livingstonensis Ac10

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which belong to the same class of long chain ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), are present in marine γ-proteobacteria. In contrast to their de novo biosynthesis that has been intensively studied, their metabolic fates remain largely...
