Contributions

Y.L.Y., Y.N.A.S, S.Y.M. and Y.S.H. measured the incorporation of 13C into intracellular downstream metabolites by mass spectrometry and isotopic carbon tracing. T.R.M.T., D.S.Z.L and J.G.L.T designed and conducted all the other experiments. S.K.N. conceived the experiments. All authors reviewed the manuscript.
