The invention relates to methods and compositions concerning desaturase enzymes that modulate the number and location of double bonds in long chain poly-unsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA' s). In particular, the invention relates to methods and compositions for improving omega-3 fatty acid profiles in plant products and parts using exogenous desaturase enzymes and nucleic acids encoding for such enzymes. In particular embodiments, the exogenous desaturase enzymes utilized are Hemiselmis spp. delta 5 desaturases. Also provided are improved soybean oil compositions having EPA derived from plants carrying the genes of interest.
Linvention concerne des procédés et des compositions concernant des enzymes désaturase, qui modulent le nombre et lemplacement des doubles liaisons dans des acides gras polyinsaturés à longue chaîne (LC-PUFA). En particulier, linvention concerne des procédés et des compositions pour améliorer les profils en acides gras oméga-3 dans les produits et parties de végétaux en utilisant des enzymes désaturase exogènes et des acides nucléiques codant de telles enzymes. Dans des formes de réalisation particulières, les enzymes désaturase exogènes utilisées sont les désaturases delta 5 de Hemiselmis spp. On propose également des compositions améliorées dhuile de soja, ayant des EPA dérivés de plantes portant les gènes de linvention.
