GC–MS chromatography of fatty acids from S. elongatus expressing the empty vector pSyn6, CzFAD2, CzFAD6A or CzFAD6B. Newly synthesized fatty acids are designated in red. C17:0 was added as the internal control. The mass spectra of C16:2Δ9,12 and C18:2Δ11,14 are shown in Additional file 2: Figure S8
