Evolutionary Integration of a Foreign Aromatic Catabolic Pathway Drives Metabolic Trade-offs in Methylobacterium extorquens PA1

Alexander B. Alleman, Akorede L. Seriki, Dawson J Mathes, Monica J. Pedroni, Nkrumah A. Grant, Christopher J. Marx

This study shows how a foreign aromatic catabolic pathway integrates with central metabolism in Methylobacterium extorquens, leading to substrate-specific metabolic trade-offs and cross-adaptation.
