This project focuses on understanding the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in bacteria. By studying the enzymes responsible for PUFA production, it aims to develop sustainable methods for generating these essential fats, which are crucial for human health.
Secondary lipid metabolites such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are specialised fats that are essential for any organism optimal physiological functions. PUFAs are indeed vital for human normal development and functioning of the brain and the central nervous system, and are consumed as nutraceuticals for their numerous health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory actions.
