   1.14.19.5 | evolution |
the enzyme belongs to the fatty acid desaturase type 1 family |
745076 |
| 1.14.19.5 | metabolism |
functional expression of Dpu-DELTA11-APSQ cDNA belonging to the D11-subfamily, shows that is catalyses the formation of unsaturated fatty acyls that can be chain-shortened by beta-oxidation and subsequently reduced to the alcohol components |

the 258E/D residue contributes to the formation of the secondary coordination sphere of the dimetal unit, along with 129D, 133D and 228N, molecular docking study, overview. This residue might be influencing the shape of the reactive cavity and may play an important role in the catalytic property of this desaturase. Residue E258 in the cytosolic carboxyl terminus of the protein is critical for the steroechmistry of activity |

| 1.14.19.5 | physiological function |
regulation of DELTA11-desaturase gene expression in the pheromone gland of Mamestra brassicae during pheromonogenesis. The pheromone blend is composed of (11Z)-hexadecenyl acetate (Z11-16Ac) and hexadecyl acetate (16Ac) in a 93:7 ratio, release of pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN) regulates the pheromone production in the pheromone gland. In the pheromone glands of virgin females the expression level increased continuously from eclosion to the end of the 1st day when it reaches a plateau without further significant fluctuation up to the 8th day. Pheromonogenesis is regulated via de novo fatty acid synthesis |

| 1.14.19.5 | physiological function |
the absence of the Z isomer in the sex pheromone (E)-11-tetradecenol in Ostrinia latipennis is attributable to the strict product specificity of LATPG1 |
