Identification and expression of a new delta-12 fatty acid desaturase (FAD2-4) gene in upland cotton and its functional expression in yeast and Arabidopsis thaliana plants

A cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) genomic clone encompassing a 17.9-kb DNA fragment was found to contain a delta-12 fatty acid desaturase gene (designated FAD2-4). The FAD2-4 open reading frame has 1,155bp and is uninterrupted, encoding a conceptual FAD2-4 polypeptide of 384 amino acids that has 98%...
