Identification of KCS gene family and functional analysis of FAE-like genes from Malania oleifera

KCS (3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase) is the key enzyme catalyzing the first step of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis. Studies showed that different KCSs possessed different substrate preference. Malania oleifera are abundance of VLCFAs in its mature seeds, especially the nervonic acid, which...
