- aEnzyme activities in cell extracts of control or paraquat-treated wildtype E. coli JM101 grown on glucose at D = 0.17 h-1 under aerobic chemostat conditions. Ratio calculation was based on control conditions (wildtype aerobic growth on glucose). The unit of enzyme activity is μmol min-1 (mg protein) -1. All measurements were performed in triplicate. Data are expressed as means ± S.D. IDH: isocitrate dehydrogenase NADP-dependent, AKGDH: α-ketoglutaric acid dehydrogenase, PGI: glucose phosphate isomerase, MDH: malate dehydrogenase, G6PDH: glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, ICL: isocitrate lyase, ENO: enolase, THD: transhydrogenase.
