endoplasmic reticulum |
the desaturase is probably located in the endoplasmic reticulum, rather than in the chloroplast since its expression is not affected by irradiation |

Expression |
Dunaliella salina |
an irradiation increase does not affect the level of specific mRNA |
additional information |
Dunaliella salina |
lowering the external temperature from 32 to 22°C produces a transient increase in the level of specific mRNA. Considerable accumulation of mRNA for omega3-desaturase is also observed when CO2 concentration in gas-air mixture is raised from 2 to 10% |
