tür
most basic taxonomic group
they share many common physiologic and genetic features (stracture, pathology, immunology…)
there are subspecies: they share spesific but minor characteristics
taxonomic importance, practical utility
in diagnostic microbiolgy: usually limited value

40
Q

what layers surround the cytıplasmic membrane in cell walls?

A

rigid peptidoglycan (murein)

41
Q

cell wall in Gram positive bacteria

A

thick multilayered cell wall consisting mainly of peptidoglycan
degraded(bozulmak) by treatment with lysozyme
*includes proteins, teichoic and lipoteichoic acids and complex polysaccharides(C polysaccharides)

42
Q

why is peptidoglycan is essential for cell wall

A

for structure
for replication
for survival in the normally hostile conditions

43
Q

the structure formed by the removal of the cell wall

44
Q

teichoic acids

A

water soluble, anionic polymers of polyol phosphates

45
Q

lipoteichoic acids

A

fatty acids and anchored in cytoplasmic membrane

46
Q

cell wall in Gram negative bacteria

A

cell walls are more complicated than gps
contains two layers external to the cytoplasmic membrane
no teichoic or lipoteichoid acid
has outer membrane
addition of lysozyme to GN cells with a disrupted outer membrane produces spheroplasts

47
Q

outer membrane

A

external to the peptidoglycan layer
uniqe to GNs
connected to cytoplasmic membrane at adhesion sites and tied to peptidoglycan by lipoprotein

48
Q

periplasmic space

A

area between the external surface of the cytoplasmic membrane and the internal surface of the outer membrane
contains components of of transport systems and variety of hydrolytic enzymes
these functions are important to the cell for the breakdown of large macromolecules

49
Q

lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

A

also called endotoxin
a powerful stimulator of innate and immune responses
*induces fever and can cause shock
*Shwartzman reaction (disseminated intravascular coagulation=DIC) follows the release of large amounts of endotoxin into the bloodstream
neisseria bacteria shed a large amounts of related molecule, lipooligosaccharide (LOS), resulting in fever and severe symptoms
contains transmembrane proteins?

50
Q

porins

A

form pores allowing the diffusion of hydrophilic molecules less than 700Da in mass through the membrane

51
Q

protoplasts and spheroplasts

A

laboratory generated entities

have everything expect cell wall

52
Q

spheroblasts

A

a bacterium or plant cell bound by its plasma membrane, the cell wall being deficient or lacking and the whole having a spherical form
spherical shape assumed by gram negative bacteria

53
Q

protoplasts

A

spherical shape assumed by gram positive bacteria

54
Q

L forms of bacteria

A

arise spontaneously

lack cell wall

55
Q

cytoplasmic structure of bacteria

A

contains DNA chromosome, messenger RNA (mRna), ribosomes, proteins and metabolites
unlike eukaryotes, the bacterial chromosome is a double stranded circle, isnt contained in a nucleus but in an area called nucleoid, is haploid,
Dna doesnt have histons
dna doesnt form nucleosomes
contain plasmids

56
Q

plasmids

A

eukaryotes dont have
smaller, circular, extrachromosomal DNAs
not essential but adds extra functions, residency(antibiotic olayı)

57
Q

why is transcription and translation are coupled in prokaryotes?

A

because there isnt a nuclear membrane,

iki olay arası çok kısa sürüyor

58

what is mycoplasma difference to prokaryotes in membranes?

A

mycoplasmas contain steroids

59
Q

capsules

A

loose polysaccharide or protein layers closely surrounding bacteria

60

loosely adherent material around bacteria

61
Q

the capsules or slime layers also called what?

A

glycocalyx

A

bacillus anthracis

63
Q

india ink

A

with this capsules can be seen

64
Q

capsule and slime functions

unnecessary for the growth of bacteria
very important for survival in the host
poorly antigenic and antiphagocytic factor
major virulence factor

65
Q

A

external structure
a polysaccharide structure produced and secreted by bacteria when quarum reached
bu halde antibiyotikler dah zor etki eder, fagosite olmaları zorlaşır
