From: Systems biology approach reveals that overflow metabolism of acetate in Escherichia coli is triggered by carbon catabolite repression of acetyl-CoA synthetase

Figure 2

Increasing dilution rate dependent E. coli metabolism characterization in one A-stat cultivation (a = 0.01 h-2). D, dilution rate (h-1); X, biomass concentration (g dry cellular weight (DCW)/L); μ, specific growth rate (h-1); rCO2, specific CO2 production rate (mmol/g DCW h); OAc-, acetate concentration (mM); Glc, glucose concentration (mM); cAMP, cyclic AMP concentration (μM). Arrow indicates the start of overflow metabolism. Start of vertical axes was chosen for better visualization.
