Heterologous expression in Saccharomyces and Chlamydomonas reveals host-dependent activity of Brassica juncea fatty acid elongase1 isozymes

Neelesh Patra, Susamoy Sarkar, Mrinal Kumar Maiti

This study expresses Brassica juncea FAE1 isozymes in yeast and algae to assess their activity, finding that only yeast supports VLCFA biosynthesis, highlighting host-dependent enzyme function.

Knockout of fatty acid elongase1 homeoalleles in amphidiploid Brassica juncea leads to undetectable erucic acid in seed oil

Neelesh Patra, Guy C. Barker, Mrinal Kumar Maiti

This study uses CRISPR/Cas9 to knockout FAE1 genes in Brassica juncea, reducing erucic acid and increasing beneficial fatty acids without compromising yield.
