Abstract excerpt
The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent glucose-specific phosphotransferase system (PTS(Glc)) is the main glucose uptake pathway in Escherichia coli that affects both substrate assimilation and metabolism leading to the product formation. In this study, the effect of single PTS(Glc) mutation on cell growth and substrate consumption was investigated by knocking out the genes involved in the phosphotransfer cascade of...
