For GN20 we derive a conversion factor of a_co < 1.0 Msun pc^-2(K km s^-1)^-1, consistent with that of local ULIRGs, while for BzK-21000 we find a considerably higher value, a_co ~4.0 Msun pc^-2(K km s^-1)^-1, in agreement with an independent kinematic derivation reported previously. The implied star formation efficiency is ~25 Lsun/Msun for BzK-21000, a factor of ~5-10 lower than that of GN20. The findings for these two sources support the existence of different disk-like and starburst star-formation modes in distant galaxies, although a larger sample is required to draw statistically robust results
