Characterising complex metabolic responses in an engineered, cross-feeding microbial co-culture using quantitative proteomics Microbial communities play a key role in biogeochemical transformations in a wide range of ecosystems, but they also hold significant potential to enh…

Engineering synthetic co-cultures to be "needy" leads to unexpected consequences. We barely scratch the surface here, but get some interesting insights #biotech
