Doubling the catabolic reducing power (NADH) output of <i>Escherichia coli</i> fermentation for production of reduced products
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Homofermentative production of reduced products requires additional reducing power output (NADH) from glucose catabolism. Anaerobic expression of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH, encoded by aceEF-lpd, a normal aerobic operon) is able to provide the additional NADH required for production of reduced products in Escherichia coli fermentation. The multiple promoters (pflBp(1-7)) of pyruvate formate lyase (pflB) were evaluated for anaerobic expression of the aceEF-lpd operon. Four chromosomal constructs, pflBp(1-7)-aceEF-lpd, pflBp(1-6)-aceEF-lpd, pflBp(6,7)-aceEF-lpd, and pflBp6-aceEF-lpd efficiently expressed the PDH complex in anaerobically grown cells. Doubling the reducing power output was achieved when glucose was oxidized to acetyl-CoA through glycolysis and pyruvate oxidation by the anaerobically expressed PDH complex (glucose -->2 acetyl-CoA + 4 NADH). This additional reducing power output can be used for production of reduced products in anaerobic E. coli fermentation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
