The present invention relates to a novel hook-white squid-derived delta-5 desaturase gene, an expression vector comprising the gene, a transformant transformed with the expression vector, and a method for producing the transformant. Metabolism engineering to generate polyunsaturated fatty acids of omega-6, such as arachidonic acid, when isolated from the hook white squid-derived delta-5 unsaturated enzyme gene of the present invention to confirm its function and used in oily crops such as perilla perilla containing linoleic acid Applicable to the technology. |
