Abstract
The elongation of fatty acids in microsomes of Mucor lusitanicus fungi was studied in vitro. It was shown that [malonyl-2-C-14]-CoA is incor porated chiefly into monoenoic and trienoic fatty acids of the total m icrosomal lipids. The-activity of the enzyme complex in this case depe nds on the culture conditions, in particular, on the temperature.
