The pathway starts with trans-cinnamate interacting with a hydrogen ion, an oxygen molecule, and a NADH through a cinnamate dioxygenase resulting in a NAD and a cis-3-(3-Carboxyethenyl)-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diol which then interact together through a 2,3-dihydroxy-2,3-dihydrophenylpropionate dehydrogenase resulting in the release of a hydrogen ion, an NADH molecule and a 2,3 dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate. The second way by which the 2,3 dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate is acquired is through a 3-hydroxy-trans-cinnamate interacting with a hydrogen ion, a NADH and an oxygen molecule through a 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propionate 2-hydroxylase resulting in the release of a NAD molecule, a water molecule and a 2,3-dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate. The compound 2,3 dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate then interacts with an oxygen molecule through a 2,3-dihydroxyphenylpropionate 1,2-dioxygenase resulting in a hydrogen ion and a 2-hydroxy-6-oxonona-2,4,7-triene-1,9-dioate. The latter compound then interacts with a water molecule through a 2-hydroxy-6-oxononatrienedioate hydrolase resulting in a release of a hydrogen ion, a fumarate molecule and (2Z)-2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate. The latter compound reacts spontaneously to isomerize into a 2-oxopent-4-enoate. This compound is then hydrated through a 2-oxopent-4-enoate hydratase resulting in a 4-hydroxy-2-oxopentanoate. This compound then interacts with a 4-hydroxy-2-ketovalerate aldolase resulting in the release of a pyruvate, and an acetaldehyde. The acetaldehyde then interacts with a coenzyme A and a NAD molecule through a acetaldehyde dehydrogenase resulting in a hydrogen ion, a NADH and an acetyl-coa which can be incorporated into the TCA cycle

The d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is incorporated into a glycolysis while the pyruvic acid is decarboxylated into acetyl CoA

The biosynthesis of shikimate starts with D-Erythrose-4-phosphate getting transformed into 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate through a phospho-2-dehydro-3-deoxyheptonate aldolase. This is followed by a 3-dehydroquinate synthase converting the 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate into a 3-dehydroquinate which in turn is conveted to 3-dehydroshikimate through a 3-dehydroquinate dehydratase. A this point 3-dehydroshikimate can be turned into Shikimic acid through 2 different reactions involving an NADPH driven Quinate/shikimate dehydrogenase or a NADPH driven shikimate dehydrogenase 2. Shikimate can also be transported through a shikimate:H+ symporter.

The latter compound interacts with a dihydroneopterin aldolase resulting in the release of a glycolaldehyde and a 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin. This compound then is then diphosphorylated by reacting with a ATP driven 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin pyrophosphokinase resulting in the release of a hydrogen ion, an AMP and 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin diphosphate. GTP interacts with a cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate synthase resulting in the release of a diphosphate and a cyclic pyranopterin phosphate. The latter compound interacts with a thiocarboxylated small subunit of molybdopterin synthase (a protein) and a water molecule through a molybdopterin synthase resulting in the release of 4 hydrogen ions, 2 small subunits of molybdopterin synthase and a molybdopterin. The molybdopterin interacts with an ATP and a hydrogen ion through a molybdopterin adenylyltransferase resulting in the release of a diphosphate and a molybdopterin adenine dinucleotide. The latter compound is then metabolized by a hydrogen ion and a molybdate through a molybdopterin molybdenumtransferase resulting in the release of an AMP, a water molecule and a molybdopterin cofactor. The molybdopterin cofactor can procede to the guanylyl molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis pathway or it can be metabolized into a cytidylyl molybdenum cofactor by interacting with a CTP and a hydrogen ion through a molybdenym cofactor cytidylyltransferase resulting in the release of a pyrophosphate and a cytidyllyl molybdenum cofactor

The pathway can start in various spots. First step in this case starts with NADH interacting with a menaquinone oxidoreductase resulting in the release of a NADH and a hydrogen Ion, at the same time in the inner membrane a menaquinone interacts with 2 electrons and 2 hydrogen ions thus releasing a menaquinol. This allows for 4 hydrogen ions to be transferred from the cytosol to the periplasmic space. The menaquinol then interacts with a dimethyl sulfoxide reductase resulting in the release of 2 hydrogen ion and 2 electrons. At the same time dimethyl sulfoxide and 2 hydrogen ions interact with the enzyme resulting in the release of a dimethyl sulfide and a water molecule, this reaction happening in the periplasmic space. The second set of reactions starts with a hydrogen interacting with a menaquinone oxidoreductase resulting in the release of two electrons being released into the inner membrane which then react with with 2 hydrogen ion and a menaquinone to produce a menaquinol. This menaquinol then reacts with a trimethylamine N-oxide reductase following the same steps as mentioned before. The third set of reactions starts with with formate interacting with a formate dehydrogenase-O resulting in a release of carbon dioxide and a hydrogen ion, this releases 2 electrons that interact with a menaquinone and two hydrogen ions. This releases a menaquinol which then reacts with a trimethylamine N-oxide reductase following the same steps as mentioned before

Phospholipids are membrane components in E. coli. The major phospholipids of E. coli are phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and cardiolipin. All phospholipids contain sn-glycerol-3-phosphate esterified with fatty acids at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. The reaction starts from a glycerone phosphate (dihydroxyacetone phosphate) produced in glycolysis. The glycerone phosphate is transformed into an sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (glycerol 3 phosphate) by NADPH-driven glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. sn-Glycerol 3-phosphate is transformed to a 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (lysophosphatidic acid). This can be achieved by an sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase that interacts either with a long-chain acyl-CoA or with an acyl-[acp]. The 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate is transformed into a 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (phosphatidic acid) through a 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase. This compound is then converted into a CPD-diacylglycerol through a CTP phosphatidate cytididyltransferase. CPD-diacylglycerol can be transformed either into an L-1-phosphatidylserine or an L-1-phosphatidylglycerol-phosphate through a phosphatidylserine synthase or a phosphatidylglycerophosphate synthase, respectively. The L-1-phosphatidylserine transforms into L-1-phosphatidylethanolamine through a phosphatidylserine decarboxylase. On the other hand, L-1-phosphatidylglycerol-phosphate gets transformed into an L-1-phosphatidyl-glycerol through a phosphatidylglycerophosphatase. These 2 products combine to produce a cardiolipin and an ethanolamine. The L-1 phosphatidyl-glycerol can also interact with cardiolipin synthase resulting in a glycerol and a cardiolipin.
