Model of tuning lipophilic properties in cells. A speculated model was built up for explaining the competitive relation between native lipid products and heterologous lipophilic product beta-carotene. The acetyl-CoA played a key role as a crossroad and was driven to beta-carotene synthesis in Yl_5_2 by the pathways 1 and 2 (in purple square). As a result, whole cell’s fatty acid products and lipophilic composition were tuned
