Metabolism of amino acids in the Crc‐null strain during early, mid and late exponential growth. Summary of the fate of the amino acids used as predicted by the iJN1411 metabolic model constrained by the consumption data indicated in the Supporting Information Table S1. Those used during the early exponential phase are indicated in black. Amino acids for which consumption increased (red) or decreased (green) relative to early exponential growth are highlighted. Those that, after their uptake, are biodegraded within cells are indicated with an asterisk. A more detailed distribution of the fluxes is given in the Supporting Information Figures S2 (early exponential phase), S4 (mid‐exponential phase) and S6 (late exponential phase). *Amino acids that were biosynthesized and later transformed, according to the flux model.
