Bacteria are known to consume some sugars over others, although recent work reported by Koirala and colleagues in this issue of theJournal of Bacteriology(S. Koirala, X. Wang, and C. V. Rao, J Bacteriol 198:386–393, 2016,http://dx.doi.org/10.1128/JB.00709-15) revealed that individual cells do not necessarily follow this hierarchy. By studying the preferential consumption ofl-arabinose overd-xylose inEscherichia coli, those authors found that subpopulations consume one, the other, or both sugars through cross-repression between utilization pathways. Their findings challenge classic assertions about established hierarchies and can guide efforts to engineer the simultaneous utilization of multiple sugars.
