To identify the metabolic capabilities of this organism, a broad-level understanding of its metabolism is needed, which can be accomplished by a large-scale metabolic model.
The small size, simple design, and broad metabolic capabilities of bacteria allow them to grow and divide very rapidly and to inhabit and flourish in almost any environment.
Environmental variables were monitored and the metabolic capabilities of the microbial community were studied using Biolog Ecoplates®.
In addition, the ability to engineer the metabolic capabilities of M. silvestris may well have useful biotechnological applications.
The degradation rate of CODCr of individual strains, mixed strains, and the enriched consortium (VF) were measured to better understand the metabolic capabilities of consortium.
The metabolic capabilities of this consortium to survive and grow under selected heavy oil reservoir conditions such as high temperature, salinity and presence of oil were also evaluated.
The metabolic capabilities of many environmentally and medically important microbes can be quantitatively explored using systems biology approaches to metabolic networks.
We discuss here the results from a meta-analysis of genome-scale models that were developed to capture the unique metabolic capabilities of different GT types.
These natural communities have evolved to exploit the native metabolic capabilities of each species and are highly adaptive to changes in their environments.
Foraging specializations are the result of morphological and metabolic capabilities of foragers, food availability, habitat structure, etc. [1], [2].
Based on the closed genome sequences, the predicted metabolic capabilities of strains 409-05 and 317 were modeled and compared (Fig. 5).
