Evidence from FW300-N2E3

Lysine emerged in the Web of Microbes exometabolome of pseudomonas-fw300-n2e3 and was among the 13 metabolites with complete gapmind pathway predictions. 1

Lysine also showed growth in the Fitness Browser experiment used for the cross-database comparison, making it part of the 13/13 set in which complete GapMind predictions agreed with Fitness Browser growth measurements. 1

In bacdive, lysine utilization was observed in 0 of 3 strains, reported as 0+/3-, with moderate confidence. 1

The report treats the lysine production-versus-utilization result as a consistent negative BacDive observation but emphasizes that the sample size of 3 strains is too small for a strong species-level conclusion. 1

The lysine result therefore distinguishes production from utilization: FW300-N2E3 released or accumulated lysine in WoM and showed growth in a matched Fitness Browser condition, whereas the available species-level BacDive records did not show lysine utilization. 1

Pathway Capability and Accessory Contribution

The newer pathway-capability analysis refines the earlier complete GapMind interpretation by showing that lysine biosynthesis had all-gene completeness of 0.804, core-only completeness of 0.664, and an exact accessory-dependent gap of 0.140 across the analyzed genomes. 2 This supports the interpretation that lysine biosynthetic capacity can depend partly on genes outside the universally conserved core, while not itself demonstrating lysine exchange between organisms. 2
