Prototrophic cells (also referred to as the 'wild type') are self sufficient producers of required amino acids, while auxotrophs require to be on medium with the amino acid that they cannot produce.

In this example this is because it is unable to produce its own methionine (methionine auxotroph). However, a prototroph or a methionine prototrophic cell would be ab
