Recently we have isolated a number of thermotolerant, spore-forming methylotrophic bacilli in pure culture. With a methanol-limited chemostat culture of strain Tsl, incremental increases in the incubation temperature from 45~ to 62.5~ revealed an optimum with respect to growth yield of 52.5 ~ C, and
Genome-scale metabolic networks can now be reconstructed based on annotated genomic data augmented with biochemical and physiological information about the organism. Mathematical analysis can be performed to assess the capabilities of these reconstructed networks. The constraints-based framework, wi
The problems of engineering increased flux in metabolic pathways are analyzed in terms of the understanding provided by metabolic control analysis. Overexpression of a single enzyme is unlikely to be effective unless it is known to have a high flux control coefficient, which can be used as an approx
Metabolic Control Analysis has invalidated many traditional biochemical concepts of control, in particular the rate-limiting step. However, it has not been used to question the mechanisms by which pathway flux is thought to be controlled, such as the action of allosteric effectors or of covalent mod
