Chapter 22, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The precursor of the given unsaturated fatty acid must be determined.

Concept introduction:

Double bond/bonds can be introduced in the newly synthesized fatty acid by both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. In eukaryotes, Cyt b5, oxygen-dependent desaturase, and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase are responsible for the unsaturation of fatty acids. The desaturase enzyme used here contains a non-heme iron atom and this enzyme is an integral membrane protein.
