Q

All the peptidoglycan and LPS and proteins and cell wall ;ribosome and porin proteins are considered

A

Antigens to antibiotics

18
Q

What is the function of porin proteins in bacteria

A

Serve as channel to allow of sugers ;vitamins;amino acid ;metals and antimicrobial drugs such as panicilin to pass through it

19
Q

What example about acid - fast bacteria

A

Mycobacterial tuberculosis

20
Q

Acid - fast bacteria is called in this name because

A

It have an usual cell wall contain high consntration of lipid that called mycolic acid that resist decolorization with acid - alcohol after being stained with carbolfuchsin

21
Q

Glycerol Teichoic acid that pentrait the peptidoglycan and attached with lipid in cytoplasmic membrane is called

A

Lipoteichoic acid

22
Q

The stracture of peptidoglycan consist of three components

A

1-glycan sugers (NAM;NAG)
2-tetrapeptid chain
3-cross links (peptid interbridge)

23
Q

Some of antimicrobial drugs attack peptid interbridge such as

A

Panicilin cephalosporinand vancomysin

24
Q

LPS(endotoxin) responsiple for

A

1-some fetures of diseas such as fever and shock(hypotention)

25
Q

Endotoxin its called in this name because

A

It is an integral part of the cell wall of bacteria instead exotoxin that directly secreted from bacteria

26
Q

LPS composed of three distinct units are

A

1-lipid A that responsible for toxic effect
2-core polysaccharid that link ketodeoxyoculnate with lipid A by 5sugers
3 outer polysaccharid that have up to 25 repiting unite with 3-5 sugers

27
Q

The outer polymers is important somatic ;O ;antigens of gram - negative bacteria ne

A

Yes

28
Q

Teichoic acid composed of

A

Either glycerol phosphat or ribitol phosphate

29
Q

What is the medical important of teichoic acid

A

1-induce inflammation and septic shock

2- mediated the attachment of staphilococci to mucosal cells

30
Q

What is the difference between cytoplasmic membrane in bacteria and euochryotic cells

A

Euochryotic cells have sterols ;procharyotic cells not have sterols exept (mycoplasm)

31
Q

What is the the 3 function of cytoplasmic membrane?

A

1-active transport of molecule into the cell
2-energy generation by oxidative phosphorlation
3-synthesis of Precursors of cell wall
4-secretion of toxic and enzyms

32
Q

Cytoplasm in bacteria have 2 part

A

1-an amorphous matrix that contain(ribosome ;plasmid ;granules;metabolites

2-innernnucliotid region composed of DNA

33
Q

What is the difference between ribosomal bacteria and ribosome in euochryotic cells

A

In size and chemical composition

BR=70s with 50s and 30s subunite

ER=80s in size with 60s and 40s

34
Q

Granules serve as

A

Storage areas for nutrient and stain

35
Q

What the cause of diphtheria diseas

A

Metachromatic granules in corynebacterium diphtheria

36
Q

What is the nuclioid in bacteria?

A

Is the area where DNA located in it

37
Q

What is the difference between size of DNA of bacteria and HUMAN DNA

A

The size of DNA of bacteria is about 2*10(9) and have about 2000 genomes instade DNA of human have 100.000genomes

38
Q

What is the plasmid?

A

Extrachromosomal ;duble strand and circular DNA molecule found in the Cytoplasm of bacteria

39
Q

What is the types of plasmid?
