Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionfat-3 encodes a delta-6 fatty acid desaturase ('linoleoyl-CoA desaturase') containing an N-terminal cytochrome b5 domain that is orthologous to the vertebrate fatty acid desaturases (FADS); FAT-3 expressed in yeast uses linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid as substrates; FAT-3 is absolutely required in vivo for synthesis of delta-6 fatty acids, and also required for fully normal synthesis of C20 fatty acids; FAT-3 is required for a normally fast growth rate and movement speed, and for normal defecation rhythms and fertility; fat-3 is also required for regulation of basal innate immunity.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003032

Automated_descriptionEnables stearoyl-CoA 9-desaturase activity. Involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; signal release; and system process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in body wall musculature; head neurons; intestine; pharynx; and tail neurons. Used to study alcohol use disorder and lipid metabolism disorder. Is an ortholog of human FADS2 (fatty acid desaturase 2) and FADS3 (fatty acid desaturase 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkC17G10.8 link removed by agreement [sdm 0107]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
