Cell-to-cell variation and specialization in sugar metabolism in clonal bacterial populations.
While we have good understanding of bacterial metabolism at the population level, we know little about the metabolic behavior of individual cells: do single cells in clonal populations sometimes specialize on different metabolic pathways? Such metabolic specialization could be driven by stochastic g...
