In nature, metabolism is carefully controlled to avoid wasteful expenditure of energy and the accumulation of intermediates and enzymes needed for their biosynthesis.. The potential productivity of the organism is controlled by its genome and, therefore, the genome must be modified to increase the potential yield..
