(Part 1) 1.3 Microbial Genetics, Genetic alteration and Bacterial diversity Flashcards
Bacteria contains a single, paired chromosomes
T or F
F
Unpaired
Bacterias are single stranded, supercoiled, folded and twisted
T or F
F
Double stranded
Genetics of bacteria is usually located in membrane-bound organelle
T or F
F
No found in membrane bound organelle (Wala silang organelle)
A nonchromosomal elements that used as a determinant of antimicrobial resistance
Plasmid
A nonchromosomal elements that is known as the Jumping gene
Transposons
This is autonomously replicating extrachromosomal gene
Plasmid
Pieces of DNA that move from one genetic element to another, mobile genetic material
Transposons
Genetic alteration where there is a change in the original nucleotide sequence
Mutation
Mutation may result to:
- Errors in RNA application
- Chemical or physical factors or biologic factors
T or F
F
DNA Replication
Change of property of the Cell by transfer of genetic material
Genetic exchange/transfer
Pieces of DNA segments are exchanged from one bacterial cell to another which involves binding proteins such as RecA
Genetic recombination
Pieces of DNA segments are exchanged from one bacterial cell to another which involves binding proteins
Genetic recombination
Protein that is importent in genetic recombination?
RecA protein
Bacterial DNA is transported to another via a bacteriophage
Transduction
Bacterial cell uptake of free DNA when another bacterial cell dies
Transformation
