Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information PDC activity in KO11 is limiting and hence positively controls the flux to ethanol formation, since a 7fold amplification of its activity causes a 1.3fold increase into the ethanol flux, increased PDC activity stimulates glucose and xylose consumption rates Zymomonas mobilis
