• CRISPR/Cas9-mediated ablation of elovl2 in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) inhibits elongation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and induces Srebp-1 and target genes 

      Winge, Per; Datsomor, Alex; Olsen, Rolf Erik; Jin, Yang; Vik, Jon Olav; Edvardsen, Rolf; Grammes, Fabian; Wargelius, Anna; Li, Keshuai (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Atlantic salmon can synthesize polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3), arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3) via activities of very long chain fatty acyl elongases ...
    • Targeted mutagenesis of Δ5 and Δ6 fatty acyl desaturases induce dysregulation of lipid metabolism in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Jin, Yang; Datsomor, Alex Kojo; Olsen, Rolf Erik; Vik, Jon Olav; Torgersen, Jacob Seilø; Edvardsen, Rolf Brudvik; Wargelius, Anna; Winge, Per; Grammes, Fabian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background With declining wild fish populations, farmed salmon has gained popularity as a source for healthy long-chain highly unsaturated fatty acids (LC-HUFA). However, the introduction of plant oil in farmed salmon ...

      The whole-genome duplication 80 million years ago of the common ancestor of salmonids (salmonid-specific fourth vertebrate whole-genome duplication, Ss4R) provides unique opportunities to learn about the evolutionary fate ...
