ABSTRACT:
A plant .DELTA..sup.6 palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturase, the gene encoding the desaturase, and transgenic plants and plant cells containing the heterologous DNA encoding the desaturase are described. The desaturase introduces a double bond at the sixth carbon atom from the carboxyl end of a 16 carbon saturated fatty acid, and is therefore useful in production of plant seeds having a modified fatty acid profile.
