Abstract excerpt
The fermentative alcohol dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli is encoded by the adhE gene, which is induced under anaerobic conditions but repressed in air. Previous work suggested that induction of adhE might depend on NADH levels. We therefore directly measured the NAD+ and NADH levels for cultures growing aerobically and anaerobically on a series of carbon sources whose metabolism generates different relative...
