Fig. 8From: Discovery of novel amino acid production traits by evolution of synthetic co-culturesCharacterization of l-arginine production in monocultures of A ∆LEU ARG++ and B ∆LEU ARG++ ∆argTUV in CGXII with 2% (w/v) d-glucose and 3 mM l-leucine. After precultivation in CGXII defined medium with 111 mM d-glucose and 3 mM l-leucine, the cell suspension of one culture was used to inoculate eight wells of a BioLector Flowerplate. Upon sampling, a full well was harvested for each replicate at a certain time point. l-arginine and l-leucine were quantified in cell-free supernatants via HPLC and mean values are represented including the corresponding standard deviation. Mean values and standard deviations of biological triplicates are shown as lines and shaded areas, respectivelyBack to article page
