The figure below shows a metabolic pathway that occurs in a microbe Z. sp with enzymes E1 - E8 and membrane transporter that exchanges and . Membrane permeable substrate is added at high concentration for metabolic flux through the system. All metabolites are membrane permeable except and . Intermediates and are essential for microbe survival. Orange arrows indicate feedback allosteric inhibition of target enzymes. You wish to maximize production of end-product with minimal and . To achieve this goal you are able to make two enzyme modifications and two metabolite additions. Choose these options that together will most effectively enhance output of : 1. Select auxotrophic mutant of enzyme: 2. Create a mutant of enzyme 3. supplement with a metabolite: that is insensitive to allosteric inhibition. and a second metabolite:
