Common NameStearidonic acid
DescriptionStearidonic acid, also known as SDA or stearidonate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as lineolic acids and derivatives. These are derivatives of lineolic acid. Stearidonic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. It is biosynthesized from linolenic acid by the enzyme delta-6-desaturase. Natural sources of this fatty acid are the seed oils of hemp, blackcurrant and echium, and the cyanobacterium spirulina (a rich source of vitamins and minerals). Stearidonic acid is found in dietary plant oils which are metabolized to longer-chain, more unsaturated (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). These oils appear to possess hypotriglyceridemic properties typically associated with fish oils (PMID: 15173404 ). Stearidonic acid may be used as a precursor to increase the eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) content of human lipids and that combinations of gamma-linolenic acid and stearidonic acid can be used to manipulate the fatty acid compositions of lipid pools in subtle ways. Such effects may offer new strategies for manipulation of cell composition to influence cellular responses and functions in desirable ways (PMID: 15120716 ).

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in heme binding
Specific function:
Component of a lipid metabolic pathway that catalyzes biosynthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) from precursor essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) linoleic acid (LA) (18:2n-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (18:3n-3). Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in this pathway which is the desaturation of LA (18:2n-6) and ALA (18:3n-3) into gamma- linoleic acid (GLA) (18:3n-6) and stearidonic acid (18:4n-3) respectively and other desaturation steps. Highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) play pivotal roles in many biological functions. It catalizes as well the introduction of a cis double bond in palmitate to produce the mono-unsaturated fatty acid sapienate, the most abundant fatty acid in sebum
