With the wide applications of conjugate linoleic acid,more and more research began to be concentrated on linoleate isomerase.Progress achived in the study of linoleate isomerase were summarized. 随着共轭亚油酸的应用日益广泛,人们对亚油酸异构酶的研究也日益深入。
Linoleic acid (LA) is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature. In physiological literature, it has a lipid number of 18:2 cis,cis-9,12. Linoleic acid is a carboxylic acid with an 18-carbon chain and two cis double bonds; with the first double bond located at the sixth carbon from the methyl end.
