Exploring metabolic engineering design principles for the photosynthetic production of lactic acid by Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

Table 2 Increased carbon partitioning into lactic acid with increasing LDH expression

Strain	SAA023	SAA026	SAW035	SAW039
Carbon partitioning [%]	5.4 ± 2.3	7.3 ± 2.0	17.8 ± 4.4	18.7 ± 4.2

Partitioning of the incoming CO₂ over lactic acid and biomass, and expressed as the percentage of the total carbon fixation ending up in lactic acid. Values represent the average and SD derived from the first week of growth (compare Figure 2). Data has been derived from triplicate cultures.
