FIGURE 1
Schematic representation of the CCR phenomenon and its influence on the accumulation of products during a biotransformation process. (A) Effect of nutrients on CCR strength and on bacterial growth in a batch culture. (B) Sequential and hierarchical assimilation of different nutrients (‘A’ and ‘B’, preferred ones; ‘C’, intermediate preference; ‘D’ and ‘E’, non‐preferred), represented as rate. (C) Effect of CCR on the accumulation of a desired by‐product during a biotransformation reaction. Please note that representations are schematic, and values might change substantially according to conditions in different settings. CCR, carbon catabolite repression
