General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function expression of a cDNA in Escherichia coli confers fatty acyl-coenzyme A reductase activity upon those cells and results in the accumulation of fatty alcohols. Upon expression in embryos of Brassica napus, long-chain alcohols can be detected in transmethylated seed oils. In addition to free alcohols, novel wax esters are detected in the transgenic seed oils Simmondsia chinensis
