Production of branched-chain very-long-chain fatty acids by fatty acid elongases and their tissue distribution in mammals

Although most mammalian fatty acids (FAs) are straight-chain, there also exist branched-chain FAs such as iso- and anteiso-FAs, especially in the meibomian glands. Meibum lipids, which are secreted from the meibomian glands and are important for dry eye prevention, contain abundant branched-chain li...
