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.

Toluene degradation allows bacteria to use toluene, a common environmental pollutant, as both a carbon and energy source. Toluene enters the bacterial cell by passive diffusion due to its hydrophobic nature. Once within the cell, toluene undergoes a variety of enzymatic reactions. The first step is for the Gamma-Subunit of benzylsuccinate synthase to convert it into benzylsuccinate. This intermediate is then converted to Benzylsuccinyl-CoA by subunit of Benzylsuccinate CoA-transferases. Subsequently, Benzylsuccinyl-CoA undergoes a series of enzymatic reactions to form Benzoylsuccinyl-CoA, and finally benzoyl-CoA, which enters the benzoate degradation pathway, providing the bacteria with energy and carbon for growth and survival.

Ethylbenzene degradation involves a sequence of enzymatic activities that allow bacteria to use ethylbenzene as both a carbon and energy source. Due to its hydrophobic nature, ethylbenzene can enter bacterial cells via passive diffusion across the cell membrane. Once inside, the enzyme ethylbenzene dehydrogenase activates ethylbenzene, converting it to (S)-1-phenylethanol, which is then transformed to acetophenone by (S)-1-phenylethanol dehydrogenase. Acetophenone is further converted to Benzoylacetyl-CoA, which enters the benzoate degradation route, where energy is generated and different compounds, including folate, are synthesised.
