Fatty acids C12-C22 are components of acylated steryl glucosides in Calendula officinalis. Various particulate fractions from 14-day-old seedlings catalyze the esterification of the steryl glucosides with utilization of endogenous acyl donors. The activity seems to be associated mainly with the

Expression of Delta(12)-oleic acid desaturase-related fatty acid conjugases from Calendula officinalis, Momordica charantia, and Vernicia fordii in seeds of soybean (Glycine max) or an Arabidopsis thaliana fad3/fae1 mutant was accompanied by the accumulation of the conjugated fatty acids calendic
