Patent

CA 2378423

The invention relates to an improved method for producing unsaturated fatty acids and to a method for producing triglycerides with an increased unsaturated fatty acid content. The invention also relates to the production of a transgenic organism, preferably a transgenic plant or a transgenic micro- organism, containing increased quantities of unsaturated fatty acids, oils or lipids with .DELTA.6-double bonds as a result of the expression of a .DELTA.-6- desaturase, from moss. The invention also relates to transgenic organisms containing a .DELTA.6-desaturase gene, and to the use of the unsaturated fatty acids or triglycerides with an increased unsaturated fatty acid content produced in the method.

L'invention concerne un procédé amélioré de production d'acides gras insaturés et un procédé de production de triglycérides à teneur plus élevée en acides insaturés. L'invention concerne la production d'un organisme transgénique, de préférence, d'une plante transgénique ou d'un micro-organisme transgénique à teneur plus élevée en acides gras, huiles ou lipides avec doubles liaisons .DELTA.6 en raison d'une .DELTA.-6-désaturase exprimée de la mousse. L'invention concerne également des organismes transgéniques qui contiennent un gène de .DELTA.6-désaturase, et l'utilisation des acides gras insaturés et triglycérides ayant une teneur plus élevée en acides gras insaturés obtenus selon le procédé.
