This study quantifies how specific membrane surface area (sMSA) constrains Escherichia coli growth rates and energy metabolism across aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

This study examines how mechanical injury alters metabolism in bovine and human chondrocytes, revealing differences in oxygen consumption and glutamine accumulation between healthy and osteoarthritic cells.

This study develops a stoichiometric model of chondrocyte metabolism to examine how cyclical shear and compressive loading affect matrix protein synthesis, revealing sex-dependent differences and nitrogen limitations.

The paper develops a theory linking cell geometry, membrane protein crowding, and metabolic traits in E. coli, validated through experimental data.

This study investigates how obligate intracellular parasites alter microbial community composition through metabolic remodeling in an in vitro system.

The paper tests how environmental conditions affect the fitness of microbial consortia with different metabolite exchange strategies, finding that a lactic acid-exchanging consortium outperformed wild type under weakly buffered conditions but not under highly buffered conditions.

This study quantifies Pseudomonas aeruginosa's reverse diauxie metabolic strategy, showing its preference for nonfermentable carbon sources over glucose, which enhances its ecological success and virulence.
