摘要：

Significant progress in our understanding of the mechanism of fatty acid desaturation has been achieved. The site of initial oxidation has been determined for several membrane-bound desaturases and a common cryptoregiochemical theme has been revealed. The results of several studies, including a detailed analysis of a soluble plant desaturase system, point to a close mechanistic relationship between dehydrogenation and hydroxylation pathways.
