MpDES5	Δ5 fatty acid desaturase		Published
MpFAD7	Secondary metabolism enzyme		Provisional

Δ5 fatty acid desaturase; MpDES5 mediates two Δ5-desaturation reactions, dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA; 20:3Δ8,11,14) to arachidonic acid (AA;20:4Δ5,8,11,14) in the n-6 pathway, and eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA; 18:4Δ8,11,14,17) to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5Δ5,8,11,14,17) in the n-3 pathway.
