Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) plays a key role in lipid metabolism in humans and
livestock. In ruminants, changes in the coding and/or regulatory sequences of the SCD gene …

There is evidence that stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is a key enzyme for lipid metabolism.
Changes in enzyme activity that depends on SCD gene polymorphism and regulation could …

Stearoyl-coenzyme A-desaturase (SCD) is a candidate gene for genetic variation in the fatty
acid composition of meat and milk. The SCD enzyme catalyzes a D9-cis desaturation of a …

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) plays a key metabolic role by changing the saturated FA
content of ruminant milk and meat. In this study we characterized for the first time the stearoyl …

Genetic variability of the caprine stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) gene has been
investigated by sequencing a 4.7-kb cDNA in 6 goats from the Murciano-Granadina and …

Focuses on the characterization of several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the
porcine stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) gene. Role of SCD in the biosynthesis of …

Stearoyl CoA desaturase (SCD) is the key enzyme involved in the endogenous synthesis of
conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in ruminants. Changes in the enzymatic activity as a result of …

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of unsaturated
fatty acids. So far only a partial porcine SCD sequence is available. Here we described the …

The nutritional quality of lambs may be improved with increased stearoyl-CoA desaturase
(SCD) gene expression, which increases the desaturation of stearic acid to oleic acid. The …

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in milk arises through microbial biohydrogenation of dietary
polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the rumen, and by the action of mammary Stearoyl …
