Background Information
Fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2) is responsible for the first desaturation reaction in the synthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs), such as arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) and eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3), and is involved in Mead acid (20:3n-9) production during essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) (PMID: 29353041). This is important when temperatures changes and the membrane is under distress. It has 4 isoforms produced by alternative splicing.
