SyllabusThe class will meet at the 6th Classroom of
Building No.3 every Tuesday between 10:20 am
and 12:10 pm.
The course covers 16 topics of microbial
metabolism. Before the midterm exam, it includes
7 topics regarding the general concepts. After the
exam, we will spend 9 weeks to discuss the
metabolism of specific species and the progress of
microbial metabolomics and systems microbiology.

Microbial Nutrition and Metabolism
12
Diversity in Nutritional Requirements
Inversely related to its physiological complexityThe more things an organism makes for itself, the
fewer things with which it must be presupplied.
Some microbes require a great many thing for growth
while others require a few.
Most microbes require fewer nutrients than do
large life forms.
The function of nutrient requirement by a
microbe is similar or identical to that of a
large life form.
13
Large life formsComplex structurally
Relatively speaking, simple physiologically
MicroorganismsSimple morphologically
Complex physiologically
Complex metabolically
AdaptabilityCarry out metabolism from a tremendous variety
of organic materials
Can use radiant energy
Survive in a diversity of environments
Metabolic versatility and adaptability
