Bacteria

Candidatus Walczuchella monophlebidarum could be supplying most precursors for amino acid biosynthesis, as it has the potential to make ribulose-5P from ribose-1P and also PEP and pyruvate from glycolysis. It is also capable of producing homocysteine from homoserine for methionine biosynthesis.
