Fig 1. Optimization of Metabolic Pathways.

Fig 1

(A) Orthogonal metabolic output in a bacterial cell is depicted as a function (f) of the genetic circuit controlling metabolism and additional variables. (B) Two gene expression cassettes are drawn that encode enzymes controlling a metabolic pathway. Promoters, ribosome binding sites, and alleles for the two cassettes are chosen from a library of elements.
