Stearoyl-CoA desaturase ( fatty acid desaturase, SCD) is expressed at high levels in several human tissues and is required for the biosynthesis of oleate (18:1) and palmitoleate (16:1). These monounsaturated fatty acids are the major components of phospholipids, triglycerides, wax esters, and cholesterol esters.1) Cohen, P., et al., (2003) Curr. Drug Targets Immune Endocr. Metabol.
