||
|---|---|---|---|
| Glucose | Lactate | Acetate | |
| Wild type | 0.14 ± 0.01 | 0.18 ± 0.01 | 0.034 ± 0.005 |
| ΔmalE | <0.01 | <0.01 | <0.01 |
| WT(pMF22) | 1.0 ± 0.04 | 1.4 ± 0.06 | 1.6 ± 0.06 |
The results are average values obtained with protein extracts taken from at least two independent experiments and analyzed in triplicate, and the standard errors are indicated.
