What happens if you knock down every metabolic gene in E. coli? We measured the metabolome of 1515 CRISPRi strains. Result: metabolism behaves like traffic. Block an enzyme and metabolites pile up upstream. 🚗🚗🚗 New paper 🧵

Example: Knockdown of ispB increases farnesyl-PP. Add a carotenoid pathway and get more product. 🟠 Metabolite accumulation can reveal engineering targets.
