Figure 3

Complexity of metabolic subsystems. Considering 4 groups of tasks, for the production of the various biomass constituents: 20 A mino acids, 9 N ucleotides, 8 L ipids and sterols and 4 C arbohydrates. Mean/standard deviations across group members: (a) Count of genes implicated for involvement in the task (c.f. Table 1), left/right histograms mark the genes identified using single-perturbations/MSA respectively; (b) Number of essential genes; (c) Mean Relative Error (c.f. Table 1); (d) Total contribution of the essential genes.
