Engineered inter-species amino acid cross-feeding increases population evenness in a synthetic bacterial consortium

2018-09-25

Abstract excerpt

In nature, microbes interact antagonistically, neutrally or beneficially. To shed light on the effects of positive interactions in microbial consortia we introduced metabolic dependencies and metabolite overproduction into four bacterial species. While antagonistic interactions govern the wildtype consortium behavior, the genetic modifications alleviated antagonistic interactions and resulted in beneficial interac...
