Growth Condition
Strains Bacillus subtilis
Genotype Wild type;tryptophan auxotroph.
Culture medium A 1L portion of media contained 1g of NH4Cl, 0.04g of tryptophan, 1.0g of KH2PO4, 2.72g of K2HPO4, 0.284g of Na2SO4, 0.17g of NaNO3, 0.15g of KCl, 0.049g of MgCl2-6H2O, 2.16mg of FeCl3-6H2O, 0.015g of MnCl2-4H2O, and 0.022g of CaCl2-6H2O. The concentrations of glucose and citrate were 2 and 0.32 g/L,respectively. During the steady-state condition, the carbon sources were switched from natural abundance glucose and citrate to [1-13C]D-glucose and unlabeled citrate.
Carbon source Glucose and citrate
Growth rate 0.4/h
Case-specific description Metabolite trafficking patterns that are predicted by linear programming to confer high carbon yield and agree to within 10% with the observed yield. Flux values correspond to basis growth rate of 0.4/h. The maximized yield solutions also correspond to minimized pyruvate kinase flux.
