Fig. 6

Transcription levels of four genes encoding metabolic enzymes in the ancestor and evolved clones. Promoter activities measured as (dGFP/dt)/OD450nm for genes involved in glucose and acetate metabolism during the first 8 h of growth in DM250-glucose. The clones are, from left to right: 50KS1, 6.5KS1, ancestor (Anc), 6.5KL4 and 50KL1. The genes are, from top to bottom: pgi encoding glucose phosphate isomerase, acnB encoding aconitate hydratase, aceB encoding malate synthase A, and ackA encoding acetate kinase. Activity values are means based on three-fold replication of each assay
