Message definition (Omega-3 fatty acid)
In the expressions ''n−x'' or ω−''x'', the symbol is a minus sign rather than a hyphen (or dash), although it is never read as such. Also, the symbol ''n'' (or ω) represents the locant of the methyl end, counted from the [[carboxyl group|carboxyl]] end of the fatty acid carbon chain. For instance, in an omega−3 fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms (see illustration), where the methyl end is at location 18 from the carboxyl end, ''n'' (or ω) represents the number 18, and the notation n−3 (or ω−3) represents the subtraction 18−3 = 15, where 15 is the locant of the double bond which is closest to the methyl end, counted from the carboxyl end of the chain.
