Bacte Part 2 Flashcards
Bacteria that has no cell wall
Mycoplasma
Archaebacteria
Prions disease are often called what?
Spongiform encephalopathies
Based on the density of proteins
Svedberg unit
Divides by mitosis/meiosis, 10-100um, with nuclear membrane, 80-90 ribosomes, with membranous organelles
Eukaryotic
Where does peptidoglycan found?
Cell wall
4 base of DNA
Adenine
Guanine
Thymine
Cytosine
What are the 2 small microorganisms
Prions and viruses
No nucleic acid, no RNA and DNA
Prions
They have DNA or RNA, obligate intracellular parasite
viruses
What makes the acid fast bacillus acid fast?
Mycolic acid
Medical term for fungal infection
Mycoses
Diplo - cells remain attached in pairs give example
Diplococcus/Diplococci
ex. Gram + Streptococcus pneumoniae
Gram - Neisseria
Strepto - cells attached in chain give example
Streptococcus pyogenes
Streptococcus bacillus
Cells arrange in squares
Tetrads
Cells arranged in cube
Sarcinae
Staphylo - random planes of division resulting in sheets and clumps (grape-like)
Staphylococcus aureus
Pallisade - side by side arrangement or chinese letter
Corenebacterium diptheriae
Prokaryotes don’t have nuclear membrane but they have this, this is where you can find bacteria’s DNA
Nucleoid
One way on how we can able to kill bacteria that are resistant to most antibiotic
Bacteriophaging
Primary genetic material of bacteria exists in the form of what
Single circular strand of DNA
Singular circular strand of DNA on bacteria is designated as the
Chromatin body or Bacterial chromosome
Arranged along the length of DNA that carry information required for bacterial maintenance, growth and reproduction
Genes
What is the process of preserving code and passing it on, the metabolic machinery of bacteria responds to a message and initiates the duplication of the chromosomes
Replication
What are the three basic steps of replication
Uncoiling
Unzipping
Synthesis
Important for protein synthesis, gives rough structure to bacteria
Ribosomes
What are the three steps of protein synthesis?
Transcription
Translation
Protein assembly
Synthesizing mRNA, start where our protein is produce, messenger RNAs copies the genetic made up of DNA
Transcription
Transfer of RNA, as the mRNA is read by ribosome, the amino acids are brought to ribosome by transfer RNA (rRNA)
Translation
Based on sequence of amino acid
Peptide chain
Building block of protein
Amino acid
For perpetuation, survival and resistance, consists of calcium dipicolinate
example Clostridium botulinum
Spores/bacterial endospores
Most potent among all bacteria, also known as canned food bacillus
Clostridium botulinum
It also have spores, they used it for biological warfare, also called woolsorter’s disease
Bacillus anthracis
Spores can be
Terminal
Subterminal
Center
It’s spores is located to terminal, also known as lollipop bacillus/drumstick bacillus
Clostridium tetani
Gives color in the cytoplasm, to be able to emphasize bacteria
Metachromatic granules
This is one particular chemical composition of bacteria that produces what
Volutin or granules
Give example of bacteria that produces metachromatic granules
Corenebacterieum diptheriae
Glycocalyx is the external coating of the cell, give the two types of glycocalyx
Capsule and Slime layer
This is organized and also called anti-phagocytic factor, it give rise to pathogenicity and virulence factor of our bacteria
Capsule
Layer of polysaccharide that protects the bacterial cell wall and serves as a barrier against phagocytosis by WBCs
Capsule
Give bacteria that have capsule
Haemophilus and Streptococcus pneumoniae
A serological test to identify capsule, the capsule will swell and emits color of pink
Neufeld Quellung test
Unorganized type of glycocalyx, will able to cover the bacterial cell, important for attachment
Slime layer
Give example of bacteria that have slime layer
Staphylococcus epidermidis (microbiota in the skin)
Conjested with a lot of slime layer, nagkakaroon ng bacterial resistance are called
Biofilm
Some capsules are large that the bacterial colony looks mucoid or sticky, isolated from sputum of a patient with cystic fibrosis, we can see this colony in what bacteria
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
One of the most important part of bacteria, so we can identify if the bactera is gram + or gram -, peptidoglycan (made up of polysaccharide and protein)
Cell wall
