Suboptimal resource allocation in changing environments constrains response and growth in bacteria

Rohan Balakrishnan et al.

Summary: Microbes need to synthesize novel proteins to respond to fluctuating conditions, but must develop effective response strategies to manage depleting biosynthetic precursors. Contrary to common modeling assumptions, cells do not optimize growth under changing environments, instead exhibiting hardwired response strategies that may promote fitness in their native environment. This constraint and suboptimality in cellular response provide a conceptual framework relevant for various research applications, from evolution prediction to gene circuit improvement in biotechnology.
