Identification and characterization of FAD4. a Fatty acid profiles of WT, fad4Δ, fad4FAD2 and fad4FAD4. b Biomass, lipid titers and lipid contents of WT, fad4Δ, fad4FAD2 and fad4FAD4. c 18:2 production (%TFA) in WT and fad2Δ strains. d Fatty acid profiles of WT, fad24Δ, fad24FAD2 and fad24FAD4. e Unsaturated fatty acid yields (titer, g/L) in WT, ole1Δ and ole1FAD4 strains. f Fatty acid profiles in WT, ole1Δ and ole1FAD4 strains. The inlet shows the profile of 16:1. %TFA represents weight percentage of total fatty acids. Error bars represent standard derivations of triplicates
