By sampling the solution space of E. coliʼs metabolic network, we show\r\nthat empirical growth rate distributions recently obtained in experiments at single-cell resolution can\r\nbe explained in terms of a trade-off between the higher fitness of fast-growing phenotypes and the\r\nhigher entropy of slow-growing ones. Based on this, we propose a minimal model for the evolution of\r\na large bacterial population that captures this trade-off. The scaling relationships observed in\r\nexperiments encode, in such frameworks, for the same distance from the maximum achievable growth\r\nrate, the same degree of growth rate maximization, and/or the same rate of phenotypic change. Being\r\ngrounded on genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions, these results allow for multiple\r\nimplications and extensions in spite of the underlying conceptual simplicity."}],"ec_funded":1,"article_number":"036005","date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:50:23Z","type":"journal_article","_id":"1394","publist_id":"5815","month":"05","department":[{"_id":"GaTk"}],"publication":"Physical Biology","acknowledgement":"The research leading to these results has received funding from the from the Marie\r\nCurie Action ITN NETADIS, grant agreement no. 290038.","title":"Growth against entropy in bacterial metabolism: the phenotypic trade-off behind empirical growth rate distributions in E. coli","intvolume":" 13","date_published":"2016-05-27T00:00:00Z","year":"2016","author":[{"last_name":"De Martino","orcid":"0000-0002-5214-4706","first_name":"Daniele","id":"3FF5848A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"De Martino, Daniele"},{"last_name":"Capuani","first_name":"Fabrizio","full_name":"Capuani, Fabrizio"},{"last_name":"De Martino","first_name":"Andrea","full_name":"De Martino, Andrea"}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:51:46Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"status":"public","project":[{"_id":"25681D80-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"FP7","name":"International IST Postdoc Fellowship Programme","grant_number":"291734"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","issue":"3","publication_status":"published","day":"27","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1601.03243"}],"scopus_import":1,"citation":{"ieee":"D.
