Abstract
In the recent years most of the cDNAs and genes encoding proteins involved in de novo fatty acid biosynthesis have been cloned from various plant species. This includes acetyl-CoA carboxylases, some components of type II fatty acid synthase, acyl-[ACP] desaturases, acyl-[ACP] thioesterases. Comparison of the currently available deduced amino acid sequences reveals regions of possible functional importance. A novel cDNA sequence encoding an acyl-[ACP] thioesterase from Cuphea lanceolata is described.
