P.1107 left column 2nd paragraph: "Additionally, it was assumed that the carbon source is used to supply Mlthf in cases where the biosynthesis of the amino acid requires this compound." |
| Comments |
P.1107 left column 2nd paragraph: "Using linear programming, [investigators] determined that 1 mol of glucose can be used to convert 4.55 mol of tetrahydrofolate into Mlthf. For glycerol and acetate this number is 2.48 and 1.16, respectively." |
