MOLECULAR AND BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF OLEATE- AND GLYCEROL-3-PHOSPHATE-REGULATED SIGNALING IN PLANTS
Oleic acid (18:1), a monounsaturated fatty acid (FA), is synthesized upon desaturation of stearic acid (18:0) and this reaction is catalyzed by the plastidal enzyme stearoyl-acyl carrier protein-desaturase (SACPD). A mutation in the SSI2/FAB2 encoded SACPD lowers 18:1 levels, which correlates with i...
