Awakening sleeping beauty: production of propionic acid in Escherichia coli through the sbm operon requires the activity of a methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase

Table 3 Overall Estimated Yields (mmol)

^a Original model including energetic parameter changes (removal of the polyphosphate kinase reaction), maximised for growth under the parsimonious FBA assumption
^b Addition of the propionate symport transporter maximised for growth rate under the parsimonious FBA assumption showing predicted propionate production using the sbm operon
