FIG 2.

Characterizations of E. coli Bgl146. (a) Fermentation results of engineered strain Bgl146 on MOPS minimal medium. (b) Production of glutarate and adipate on M9, R, lysogeny broth (LB), superoptimal broth (SOB), superoptimal broth with catabolite repression (SOC), MOPS minimal medium (MOPS), and terrific broth (TB) media under aerobic conditions. (c) Fermentation results of glutarate and adipate on M9, R, LB, SOB, SOC, MOPS, and TB media under microaerobic conditions. E. coli Bgl146: BL21(DE3) harboring pAD1, pAD4, and pAD6. Error bars represent the SD from three independent assays.
