Effects of the deletion of each reaction in the modified backbone models of E. coli (iBKEco52) and S. cerevisiae (iBKSce50)). Average loss of cell growth and average gain of product yields caused by the deletion of each reaction in the modified backbone models of E. coli for the production of (a) 1-butanol by AcCoA, (b) isobutanol by PYR, and (c) 1-propanol by OAA are shown in the figure. Effects of the modified backbone models of S. cerevisiae for producing (d) isobutanol and (e) 1-propanol are also presented. The results for the production of 1-butanol by AcCoA by S. cerevisiae are not shown because there was only 1 target-producing model.
