MBE and BCA production by the RQ5.1/CB1.1 coculture system. A Representative TLC of three independent experiments showing MBE production by the RQ5.1/CB1.1 coculture system 48 h post induction, varying the inoculation ratio between both strains. Isobutanol was supplemented to the culture medium at a final concentration of 20 mM for bioconversion assays of the RQ5.1 strain (positive control). BCA-MBE, isobutanol and isopentanol-derived MBE; MBE-Et, ethanol derived MBE; MBE-Phe, 2-phenylethanol derived MBE; MAG, monoacylglycerides; DAG, diacylglycerides. B Densitometric analysis of the MBE spots of the TLC. C Quantification of BCA production for each of the cocultures at the indicated time points. Error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent experiments
