Lignocellulose is the most abundant biomass on earth with an annual production of about
2× 10 11 tons. It is an inedible renewable carbonaceous resource that is very rich in pentose …

An overview was made to understand the regulation system of a bacterial cell such as
Escherichia coli in response to nutrient limitation such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphate …

The mechanism (s) of how bacteria acquire tolerance and then resistance to antibiotics
remains poorly understood. Here, we show that glucose abundance decreases …

Cells usually respond to changing growth conditions with a change in the specific growth
rate (μ) and adjustment of their proteome to adapt and maintain metabolic efficiency …

In Escherichia coli, the phosphoenolpyruvate–carbohydrate phosphotransferase system
(PTS) is responsible for the transport and phosphorylation of sugars, such as glucose. PTS …

It is quite important to understand the overall metabolic regulation mechanism of bacterial
cells such as Escherichia coli from both science (such as biochemistry) and engineering …

Microorganisms ferment xylose at high rate only when glucose concentration in the medium
falls below a critical level. Since the specific productivity of product is highest during …

Persistence, the stress-tolerant state, is arguably the most vital phenotype since nearly all
cells experience nutrient stress, which causes a sub-population to become dormant …

After glucose, xylose is the most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic carbon sources.
However, wild-type Escherichia coli is unable to simultaneously utilize both sugars due to …

The low carbon yield from native metabolic machinery produces unfavorable process
economics during the biological conversion of substrates to desirable bioproducts. To obtain …
