Effect of inactivation of nuo and ackA-pta on redistribution of metabolic fluxes in Escherichia coli.
Biotechnology and bioengineering - 5 Nov 1999

Abstract excerpt
The nuoA-N gene cluster encodes a transmembrane NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NDH-I) responsible for coupling redox chemistry to proton-motive force generation. Interactions between nuo and the acetate-producing pathway encoded by ackA-pta were investigated by examining the metabolic patterns of several mutant strains under anaerobic growth conditions. In an ackA-pta strain, the flux to acetate was decreased...
