Molecular and physiological characterization of engineered cells overexpressing GPAT2. a Relative transcript abundance of GPAT2 as determined by using qPCR using β-actin as the internal reference gene. b Determination of enzymatic activity during 4th and 7th day of cultivation under optimal conditions. c Growth rate of engineered and WT strains as determined by direct cell count method. d Specific growth rate (µ) of engineered and WT strains. Significant difference is indicated at the p < 0.05 (*) or p < 0.01 (**) level. Each value represents the mean ± SD (n = 3)
