Conclusions
1. 303 genes (7% of total genes) are essential in E. coli K-12.
2. 90 genes (6% of metabolic genes) are essential.
3. 104 genes (7% of metabolic genes) are conditionally essential in glucose minimum
medium.
4. A lot of detour pathways are existing in E. coli metabolic pathway.
5. E. coli cells regulate the gene expression level for keeping metabolic balance .
Further Question
What is meaning of metabolic essential and conditional essential genes in E. coli?
Are the detour pathway lengths (steps) related for them?

Are there another type or meaning of metabolic essential genes in E. coli?
