Fig. 5: Predicted metabolic fluxes in the three-member SAO consortium.

Cell diagrams showing the predicted metabolic pathways for acetate oxidation in DTU068_1 and methane generation from hydrogen/formate in Methanothermobacter_1 and Methanothermobacter_2. Values of predicted flux, obtained from parsimonious flux balance analysis, are shown in red text within boxes. Net catabolic reactions are based on stoichiometry obtained from parsimonious flux balance analysis. Protein abbreviations are defined in the legend of Fig. 4.
