OverviewSAR11 biomass equals that of fishSAR11 cultured poorly in natural seawater
onlyGenome revealed major surprises
• No ability to reduce sulfur
• Some strains non-glycolytic; gluconeogenic only
• Serine made from glycine, not reverse
• Glycine riboswitch controls central carbon flow
SAR11 can now be cultured in artificial seawater• Maximum cell density improved by 100X
• New effects observable

SAR11 Isolation: Natural Medium
Rappé et al., Nature 2002
Can’t get more cells with “typical” added nutrient sources.
Oligotrophic seawater plus ammonium and phosphate.
Biomass for genome sequencing can be obtains from large scale culturing in 20 L carboys.

Step 1: PTS Import Missing
Common Embden-Meyerhoff-Parnas Deficiencies in SAR11
Step 3: 6-phosphofructokinase
Step 10: pyruvate kinase

No Oxidative Portion of Pentose P Path
Perhaps run non-oxidative portion backwards from gluconeogenesis.

Still Unanswered
Why is SAR11 strategy so successful?
Why are some phenomena only observable in artificial seawater?
What is it in rich media that inhibits growth?
