Fig. 1

Metabolic pathway of glycerol dissimilation into 2,3-butanediol in B. subtilis. Blue arrows indicate metabolic fluxes, and delta symbol (∆) followed by gene abbreviation (red font) indicates the genes suggested for knockout by single-level FBA and OptKnock. Gene abbreviations refer to the encoded enzymes, namely: ack, acetate kinase; pta, phosphate acetyltransferase; lctE, l-lactate dehydrogenase; mmgA, acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase; and zwf, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase
