First, I am not talking about the metabolism of triglycerides, only the metabolism off PUFA. And can you give me an example of what you mean by "I seem to have trouble processing long chain triglycerides", and what genetic disorder? But yes, very will known. There are thee enzymes, FADS1, FADS2, and EVOL5 that turn the short chain fatty acids like ALA in flax seed into the DHA you find in fish. The FADS genes are the most studied and polymorphisms in the genes have been linked to different cultures and therefor the reliance on certain fatty acids. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Dietary-sources-and-metabolic-pathway-of-PUFAs_fig2_256502287 https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Dietary-sources-and-meta... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3371589/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3371589/
