FAD3

Acyl-lipid omega-3 desaturase (cytochrome b5), endoplasmic reticulum

386 amino acids

Microsomal (ER) omega-3 fatty acid desaturase introduces the third double bond in the biosynthesis of 18:3 fatty acids, important constituents of plant membranes. It is thought to use cytochrome b5 as an electron donor and to act on fatty acids esterified to phosphatidylcholine and, possibly, other phospholipids.

Belongs to the fatty acid desaturase type 1 family.
