Does this produce protein with a balanced Amino Acid profile?

Maybe, maybe not, but it can be made to do so

I ask because it's much easier to make Alanine than Tyrosine, Tryptophan, branch chain AAs. Humans will develop nutrional deficiencies if the protein doesn't cover all the essential ones.

I realize. I'm suggesting that even if these methods do not include enzymes that can synthesize the essential AAs, there are bacterial enzymes which can do this, and those could be included in the bioreactor
