Analysis of a draft nuclear genome sequence of the diatomThalassiosira pseudonana revealed the presence of 11 open reading frames showing significant similarity to functionally characterized fatty acid front-end desaturases. The corresponding genes occupy discrete chromosomal loca-tions as determined by comparison with the recently published genome sequence. Phylogenetic analysis showed that two of the T. pseudonana desaturase (Tpdes) sequences grouped with proteobacterial desaturases that lack a fused cytochrome b5 domain. . | ềFEBS Journal Fatty acid desaturases from the microalga Thalassiosira pseudonana Thierry Tonon1 Olga Sayanova2 Louise V.

The corresponding genes occupy discrete chromosomal locations as determined by comparison with the recently published genome sequence. Phylogenetic analysis showed that two of the T. pseudonana desaturase Tpdes sequences grouped with proteobacterial desaturases that lack a fused cytochrome b5 domain. Among the nine remaining gene sequences temporal expression analysis revealed that seven were expressed in T. pseudonana cells. One of these TpdesN was previously characterized as encoding a A11-desaturase active on palmitic acid. From the six remaining putative desaturase genes we report here that three TpdesI TpdesO and TpdesK respectively encode A6- A5- and A4-desaturases involved in production of the health .
