Abstract

An isolated protein which is at least partially encoded by a polynucleotide sequence encoding a novel elongase is provided together with a composition which includes the isolated protein. A transgenic plant or a transgenic seed transformed by a polynucleotide encoding a protein which is at least partially encoded by a novel elongase is also provided. The invention also includes a process for making a very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in a transformed cell or plant expressing the isolated protein which is at least partially encoded by a polynucleotide sequence encoding a novel elongase.
