Abstract excerpt
The H(+)-ATPase plays a central role in Escherichia coli free-energy transduction and hence in E. coli physiology. We here investigate the extent to which this enzyme also controls the growth rate, growth yield, and respiratory rate of E. coli. We modulate the expression of the atp operon and determine the effect on said properties. When quantified in terms of control coefficients, we find that, in the wild-type...
