Products detected in whole-cell conversions of different fatty acids. a legend indicating the structures of possible products from conversions of fatty acids with resting E. coli strains from c. b the same legend, with the names of the detected compounds. The colors of the boxes correspond with the colors in c. The colors of the arrows in a and b indicate which enzymes catalyze the reactions. c resting cell conversion of fatty acids by various E. coli strains. Concentration of fatty acid was 1 mM, ethanol was added to 2.5%. C6, C8, C9 represent hexanoic, octanoic and nonanoic acid, respectively. Biomass concentrations were 1.0 gcdw/L for all strains
