Figure 8

Correlation between the "second redundancy" and the energetic yield of the Stickland reaction. The line shows the linear regression (ΔG° = -130.823 - 1.94135n c ; r2 = 0.79; p = 0.017), computed using the available free energies for distinct electron donors when fermented against glycine (actual data indicated by circles) [37]. The square is a predicted value (not included in the fit). Filled symbols indicate Miller amino acids. A: alanine, C: cysteine, I: isoleucine, L: leucine, S: serine, T: threonine, V: valine.
