RESUMO

IMPORTANCE: Energy generation pathways are a potential avenue for the development of novel antibiotics. However, bacteria possess remarkable resilience due to the compensatory pathways, which presents a challenge in this direction. NADH, the primary reducing equivalent, can transfer electrons to two distinct types of NADH dehydrogenases. Type I NADH dehydrogenase is an enzyme complex comprising multiple subunits and can generate proton motive force (PMF). Type II NADH dehydrogenase does not pump protons but plays a crucial role in maintaining the turnover of NAD+. To study the adaptive rewiring of energy metabolism, we evolved an Escherichia coli mutant lacking type II NADH dehydrogenase. We discovered that by modifying the flux through the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, E. coli could mitigate the growth impairment observed in the absence of type II NADH dehydrogenase. This research provides valuable insights into the intricate mechanisms employed by bacteria to compensate for disruptions in energy metabolism.
