The elongation of fatty acids by microsomes and mitochondria from normal and pyridoxine-deficient rat brains.

Abstract
The developmental profile of fatty acid elongation enzymes of rat brain microsomes and mitochondria and the consequences of pyridoxine deficiency have been investigated. The results suggest that a single enzyme system is responsible for elongation of the various fatty acids by mitochondria whereas the microsomal elongation system is diverse.
