Extended Data Fig. 6

Resting cell suspensions of E. lenta and S. wadsworthensis in buffer supplemented with 1mM formate assayed cellular ATP concentrations after incubation with different classes of electron acceptors, (a) cinnamates, (b) C4-dicarboxylates, (c) other enolates, (d) alkenes, (e) sulfoxides, (f) catechols, and (g) electron donor-acceptor combination dependence. Data are mean ±SD (n = 3 technical replicates).
