Escherichia coli metabolism under short-term repetitive substrate dynamics: adaptation and trade-offs

Abstract Background Microbial metabolism is highly dependent on the environmental conditions. Especially, the substrate concentration, as well as oxygen availability, determine the metabolic rates. In large-scale bioreactors, microorganisms encounter dynamic conditions in substrate and oxygen availa...
