LITERATURE
additional information
synthesis of cyclopropane fatty acids in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 by expressing the cyclopropane fatty acid synthase from Escherichia coli to produce fatty acids that are fluid and stable in response to oxidization. To increase the yield of cyclopropane fatty acids in vivo, the desC2 gene from Nostoc sp. is also expressed, expression of the desC2 gene for sn-2 specific DELTA9 desaturase positively affects growth at low temperatures, producing C16:1DELTA9 synthesis in the desA?/desD? strain, via promotion of various cellular processes, with the exceptions of photosynthesis and respiration
