Fig. 3: Characterization of the NNmini strain in aerobic conditions.

A Growth of the NNmini strain (right) and a wild-type strain (left) on varying glucose concentrations. B The NNmini strain grows to much lower biomass yields, indicated by lower OD600 values, than the wild type. The mean of duplicate measurements is shown. C Lactate concentrations detected in cultivation supernatants of the NNmini strain grown aerobically in minimal medium with varying glucose concentrations (yield 1.78 ± 0.2 mol lactate per mol glucose). For the wild type, no lactate was detected can therefore not be represented in a log scale. Duplicate measurements are shown. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
