Figure 4From: Engineering strategy of yeast metabolism for higher alcohol productionOptimized flux distribution for 1-butanol synthesis by the gene-deleted S. cerevisiae models. The flux distributions of (a) the original model (iBKSce50), (b) the merged model with the PDC reaction deleted (iBKSce50ΔmitΔpdc), and (c) the expanded model with the PGI reaction deleted (iBKSce50+7Δpgi) are shown in the figure. The oxygen uptake rate is set at 1.0. The steps represented by bold font indicate the reactions playing a role for 1-butanol production.Back to article page
