proposed mechanism of DsFAD2-2: removal of a C-11 hydrogen atom from trans-DELTA12-linoleic acid by the diiron-oxo center of DsFAD2-2 results in the shift of the cis-DELTA9 double bond to the trans-DELTA10 position. The radical remaining at the C-9 position is then able to remove an oxygen atom from the diiron-oxo center because of close proximity to the catalytic core of DsFAD2-2 as dictated by the substrate binding properties of this enzyme
The enzymes from the plants Dimorphotheca sinuata (African daisy) and Vernicia fordii (tung oil tree) insert a trans double bond in position C-12 of oleate and palmitoleate incorporated into glycerolipids. The enzyme introduces the new double bond at a position three carbons away from an existing double bond at position 9, towards the methyl end of the fatty acid. The enzyme from tung oil tree also possesses the activity of EC 1.14.19.33, Delta12 acyl-lipid conjugase.

When co-expressed with DsFAD2-1 in soybean embryos or yeast, DsFAD2-2 converts 18:29cis,12trans into dimorphecolic acid. When DsFAD2-2 is expressed alone in soybean embryos or together with a typical cis-DELTA12-oleic acid desaturase in yeast, trace amounts of the cis-DELTA12 isomer of dimorphecolic acid (9-OH-18:2DELTA9cis,12cis) are formed from DsFAD2-2 activity with cis-DELTA12-linoleic acid
