Metabolic reconstruction of a putative model for n-hexadecane degradation in Bin9 (Archaeoglobus) and Bin1 (Acinetobacter). Expression level of each gene is represented by bars, one bar equaling a FPKM value of 10. Genes whose FPKM value equal 0 are marked in red. a Proposed anaerobic degradation of n-alkane by Bin9. Orange arrows indicate pathways that are associated with acetogenesis; blue arrows represent pathways that are associated with complete oxidation of n-alkanes coupled to sulfate reduction. b Proposed aerobic n-alkane degradation by Bin1 based on genomic information
