| omega-3 fatty acid desaturase | <enzyme> Catalyses desaturation of the omega-3 carbon (3rd from free end) of c-18 fatty acids; deficiency results in accumulation of linoleic acid (18:2omega6,9) at the expense of linolenic acid (18:3omega3,6,9); amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 1.14.99.- Synonym: fad3 gene product, omega-3 desaturase (26 Jun 1999) |
| essential fatty acid | <biochemistry> The three fatty acids required for growth in mammals, arachidonic, linolenic and linoleic acids. Only linoleic acid needs to be supplied in the diet, the other two can be made from it. (18 Nov 1997) |
| unesterified free fatty acid | Free fatty acids which occur in plasma as a result of lipolysis in adipose tissue or when plasma triacylglycerols are taken into tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty | Containing fat, or having the qualities of fat; greasy; gross; as, a fatty substance. <medicine> Fatty acid, a tumour consisting of fatty or adipose tissue; lipoma. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| fatty acid | <biochemistry> Any number of saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids. A metabolic byproduct from the breakdown of fats. Chemically R COOH where R is an aliphatic moiety. The common fatty acids of biological origin are linear chains with an even number of carbon atoms. Free fatty acids are present in living tissues at low concentrations. The esterified forms are important both as energy storage molecules and structural molecules. See: triglycerides, phospholipids. (15 Nov 1997) |

| fatty acid binding protein | A fatty acid-binding protein that participates in the intracellular movement of fatty acids. Synonym: fatty acid binding protein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty acid binding proteins | <biochemistry> Group of small cytosolic proteins that bind fatty acids or other organic solutes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| fatty acid desaturases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the conversion of saturated fatty acid CoA complexes to unsaturated fatty acid CoA complexes in the presence of any acceptor. Registry number: EC 1.14.99.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| fatty acid methyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the reaction of s-adenosylmethionine and a fatty acid to yield s-adenosylhomocysteine and a fatty acid methyl ester; calcium and calmodulin insensitive Registry number: EC 2.1.1.15 (26 Jun 1999) |
