The low enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase activity of FabI2 is responsible for the high unsaturated fatty acid composition in Sinorhizobium meliloti

Abstract Background Sinorhizobium meliloti is noted for its exceptional capacity to produce unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs). Earlier studies have indicated that S. meliloti primarily employs the FabA-FabB pathway for UFA synthesis, however, the mechanisms remain elusive. This study was conducted to e...
