Abstract Different strains of a microorganism growing in the same environment display a wide variety of growth rates and growth yields. We developed a coarse-grained model to test the hypothesis that different resource allocation strategies, corresponding to different compositions of the proteome, can account for the observed rate-yield...

Microbial growth consists of the conversion of nutrients from the environment into biomassand small energy cofactors (ATP, NADH, NADPH, ...) driving biomass synthesis forward. Twomacroscopic criteria for characterizing microbial growth are growth rate and growth yield. Theformer refers to the rate of conversion of substrate into biomass, and...
