[i] The coefficient of variation is the standard deviation normalized to the average (expressed as a percent). Equimolar amino acids refers to the set of amino acids in equimolar ratios. E. coliratio amino acids refers to the set of amino acids in ratios analogous to those seen in E. coli biomass. EPs, extreme pathways.
