Towards a Computational Model of a Methane Producing Archaeum

Figure 5

A schematic of the kinetic model. Flux of ATP from the methanogenesis pathway (see Figure 4) feeds into a cell growth term that updates protein numbers used by the kinetic model, simulating the growth when fed on a certain substrate. The inset in the cell mass growth expression is from DIC microscopy with a 5 µm scale bar.
