Involved in the biosynthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) from the essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) linoleic acid (LA) (18:2n-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (18:3n-3) precursors, acting as a fatty acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) desaturase that introduces a cis double bond at carbon 6 of the fatty acyl chain. Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in this pathway which is the desaturation of LA (18:2n-6) and ALA (18:3n-3) into gamma-linoleate (GLA) (18:3n-6) and stearidonate (18:4n-3), respectively (PubMed:12713571). Subsequently, in the biosynthetic pathway of HUFA n-3 series, it desaturates tetracosapentaenoate (24:5n-3) to tetracosahexaenoate (24:6n-3), which is then converted to docosahexaenoate (DHA)(22:6n-3), an important lipid for nervous system function (By similarity). Desaturates hexadecanate (palmitate) to produce 6Z-hexadecenoate (sapienate), a fatty acid unique to humans and major component of human sebum, that has been implicated in the development of acne and may have potent antibacterial activity (PubMed:12713571). It can also desaturate (11E)-octadecenoate (trans-vaccenoate, the predominant trans fatty acid in human milk) at carbon 6 generating (6Z,11E)-octadecadienoate (By similarity). In addition to Delta-6 activity, this enzyme exhibits Delta-8 activity with slight biases toward n-3 fatty acyl-CoA substrates (By similarity).

FADS2 also known as Fatty Acid Desaturase 2 or FABRED27 functions as an enzyme involved in creating double bonds in specific fatty acids. It holds a molecular weight of approximately 52 kDa. Researchers find this enzyme prominently expressed in liver tissue and it plays an essential role in the process of lipid metabolism.
FADS2 contributes to the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids by introducing double bonds specifically within the fatty acid synthetic pathway. It does not function as part of a larger complex but operates independently. Through its enzymatic action it influences the production of essential fatty acids such as arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid which are important for maintaining normal cellular function.
FADS2 plays an integral part within both the fatty acid biosynthesis and fatty acid metabolism pathways. It closely relates with other enzymes such as acyl-CoA synthetase and elongation enzymes which work together to metabolize various fats within the body. These pathways help maintain cellular homeostasis by regulating levels of essential long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Alterations in FADS2 activity have connections to metabolic disorders like obesity and cardiovascular disease. Aberrant expression of FADS2 can influence lipid profiles in these conditions potentially exacerbating disease outcomes. FADS2 also interacts with other proteins such as SCD1 (Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase 1) within these disorders further highlighting its role in lipid metabolism and associated diseases.
