I remember learning about chirality from an Isaac Asimov article about “left-handed” sugar which, while it tastes the same as normal sugar, is unable to be metabolized by our digestive systems. I would imagine that something similar would come into play with a left-handed organism: it would be unable to consume right-handed nutrients so would starve to death. Overall, my assumption is that mirror bacteria would be unable to interact in any significant way with non-mirror organisms, but being somebody whose expertise begins and ends with reading an Isaac Asimov article on the subject as a 10-year-old, I’m very open to the possibility that I may be wrong.
