Stoichiometry of macroscopic model and estimated fluxes at the end of phase III

Flux mol Cmolx−1 h−1 Macroscopic process
qethanol 0.081 1/2 Glucose → ethanol + CO2 + ATP
qacetate 0.008 1/2 Glucose → acetate + CO2 + ATP + NADH + NADPHc
qglycerol 0.009 1/2 Glucose + ATP + NADH → glycerol
qanabolisma 0.2 Glucose + 1.65 ATP → biomass + 0.24 CO2 + 0.38 NADH
qcatabolism Glucose → 6 CO2 + 12 NADH + 2 ATP
qO2b −0.061 O2 + 2 NADH → 2 ATP
qglucosed −0.096
qCO2d 0.157
a

The stoichiometry of the anabolic reaction was adapted from reference 51.

b

An effective P/O ratio of 1 was assumed, as reported previously (51).

c

For simplicity, NADPH was not balanced.

d

qglucose and qCO2 represent the sums of fluxes through all glucose-consuming and CO2-producing processes, respectively.
