General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the stearoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) desaturase (SAD), a plastidial DELTA9 desaturase from the endosperm of coconut, plays a key role in the properties of the majority of cellular glycerolipids. The DELTA9 fatty acid desaturase is a critical enzyme in the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, which has the capability to convert palmitic acid (16:0) or stearic acid (18:0) into palmitoleic acid (16:1) or oleic acid (18:1), respectively Cocos nucifera
