Target Information
In mice, Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase, also known as SCD, primarily regulates lipid metabolism, particularly in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). SCD is pivotal as it catalyzes the conversion of saturated fatty acids, like stearic acid (C18:0), into monounsaturated fatty acids, such as oleic acid (C18:1). This conversion process is crucial for synthesizing biomolecules, including membrane phospholipids, cholesterol esters, and triglycerides. Mice lacking SCD exhibit higher energy expenditure and oxygen consumption, which correlates with improved insulin sensitivity and reduced obesity.
