Here, we delineate the pathway by characterizing three key enzymes: Δ12 fatty acid desaturase (NoΔ12FAD), Δ6 fatty acid desaturase (NoΔ6FAD), and Δ5 fatty acid desaturase (NoΔ5FAD).

Genetic manipulation of individual genes (knockdown/overexpression) reshaped fatty acid profiles, particularly EPA, while having a minimal effect on the transcription of other EPA biosynthesis genes.
