Figure 3

Optimal flux distribution of E. coli. Wild type (DXP pathway) on glucose as single carbon source without biomass formation (one of two modes with maximum theoretical IPP carbon yield). Numbers indicate relative molar fluxes (mmol/(gCDW h), CDW = cell dry weight) normalized to glucose uptake. Grey reactions are not active (flux = 0). Variable fluxes within two optimal modes are marked with an asterisk (*). Bold green arrows indicate biomass precursors.
