Fig. 7: BDQ treatment induces a change in flux directionality.

Metabolic flux maps of (a) untreated and (b) BDQ-treated Mtb growing with glucose as the primary carbon source. The fluxes shown are proportional to the glucose-uptake flux that is arbitrarily set to 100%. The fluxes that are significantly changed in directionality are indicated by red arrows. G6P -Â glucose 6 phosphate, F6P -Â fructose-6 phosphate, FBP -Â fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, GAP -Â glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, P5P -Â pentose 5 phosphate, E4P -Â erythrose 4 phosphate, S7P -Â sedoheptulose-7 phosphate, SER -Â serine, PGA -Â 3 phosphglyceric acid, PEP -Â phosphoenolpyruvate, PYR -Â pyruvate, KIV -Â 2 ketoisovalerate, VAL -Â valine, ACCOA -Â acetyl-CoA, ICIT -Â isocitrate, OXG -Â alpha-ketoglutarate, SUCCOA -Â succinyl CoA, ISOBUTCOA -Â isobutyrylCoA, SUC -Â succinate, FUM -Â fumarate, MALOAA -Â malate and oxaloacetate, PROPCOA -Â propionyl-CoA, METCIT -Â methylcitrate, METICIT -Â methylisocitrate, ILE -Â isoleucine, FA -Â fatty acids.
