Abstract
Heterologous expression of E. coli cyclopropane synthase in genotypic and phenotypic fad2fae1 plants facilitates accumulation of cyclopropane fatty acids. Co-expression of Sterculia foetida transferases, including lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase, diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), and Phospholipid Diacyl Glycerol Acyltransferase (PDAT), with E. coli cyclopropane synthase further enhances cyclopropane fatty acid accumulation in fad2fae1 plant seeds.
