2.1.1.318	malfunction	trehalose concentration is 0.93 mM/mg wet weight in the wild type strain as compared to 0.51 mMl/mg wetweight in the knock out mutant strains	729302	
2.1.1.318	physiological function	methylation of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase results in enhanced activity and subsequently increased trehalose production in the cell as it enters the stationary phase	729302
