Fatty acid elongases (EC 6.2.1.3), such as ELOVL6, use malonyl-CoA as a 2-carbon donor in the first and rate-limiting step of fatty acid elongation (Moon et al., 2001 [PubMed 11567032]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],function:Fatty acid elongase specific to C12-C16 saturated and monoinsaturated fatty acids.,similarity:Belongs to the ELO family.,
