| Abstract | Current researches into the production of biochemicals from lignocellulosic feedstocks are focused on the identification and engineering of individual microbes that utilize complex sugar mixtures. Microbial consortia represent an alternative approach that has the potential to better exploit individual species capabilities for substrate uptake and biochemical production. In this work, we construct and experimentally validate a dynamic flux balance model of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli co-culture designed for efficient aerobic consumption of glucose/xylose mixtures. Each microbe is a substrate specialist, with wild-type S. cerevisiae consuming only glucose and engineered E. coli strain ZSC113 consuming only xylose, to avoid diauxic growth commonly observed in individual microbes. Following experimental identification of a common pH and temperature for optimal co-culture batch growth, we demonstrate that pure culture models developed for optimal growth conditions can be adapted to the suboptimal, common growth condition by adjustment of the non-growth associated ATP maintenance of each microbe. By comparing pure culture model predictions to co-culture experimental data, the inhibitory effect of ethanol produced by S. cerevisiae on E. coli growth was found to be the only interaction necessary to include in the co-culture model to generate accurate batch profile predictions. Co-culture model utility was demonstrated by predicting initial cell concentrations that yield simultaneous glucose and xylose exhaustion for different sugar mixtures. Successful experimental validation of the model predictions demonstrated that steady-state metabolic reconstructions developed for individual microbes can be adapted to develop dynamic flux balance models of microbial consortia for the production of renewable chemicals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
