Products detected in whole-cell conversions of methyl nonanoate and ethyl nonanoate. a legend indicating the structures of possible products from conversions of fatty acid methyl/ethyl esters 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 conversions of 1 mM methyl nonanoate (NAME) or 1 mM ethyl nonanoate (NAEE) by various E. coli strains. Ethanol was added to 2.5%. Biomass concentrations were 1.0 gcdw/L for both strains
