Figure 4

Acetyl-CoA production through the bypassed pyruvate decarboxylation pathway. Heat-treated cells of recombinant E. coli having Ap PDC and Tt ADDH (approximately 8 and 4 mg ml-1, respectively) were incubated at 50°C with 2 mM each of pyruvate, NAD+, and CoA. Acetyl-CoA (green circle), CoA (yellow square) and acetate (blue diamond) concentrations were quantified by HPLC.
