Inactivation of metabolic genes causes short- and long-range dys-regulation in Escherichia coli metabolic network.

The metabolic network in E. coli can be severely affected by the inactivation of metabolic genes that are required to catabolize a nutrient (D-galactose). We hypothesized that the resulting accumulation of small molecules can yield local as well as systemic effects on the metabolic network. Analysis...
