  8. Bacterial Groups • Gram Positive • G + C • High • Corynebacterium • Mycobacterium • Actinomyces • Low • Clostridium • Bacillus • Listeria • Streptococcus • Staphylococcus • Mycoplasmas Coryne

  9. Bacterial Groups • Gram (-) • Proteobacteria • Alpha (O2) • Beta (N) • Gamma • Delta (S) • Epsilon (GI tract) • Chlamydia • Spirochetes • Treponema • Borrelia • Bacteroides H. pylori

  10. Prokaryotic Cell • Size • Shape • Monomorphic • Coccus • Bacillus • Spiral • Pleomorphic • Arrangement • Single • Diplo • Chains • Multiple planes

  11. Prokaryotic Reproduction • Asexual • Binary Fission • Daughter cells • Separate • Hinged (snap) • Spores • Filament end • Clone • Budding • outgrowth

  12. Binary Fission

  13. Cocci Arrangements • Appearance • Pairs • Chains • Four (Square-tetrad) • Cube (8): Sarcina • Cluster • Planes • 1 • 2 • 3 • Multiple Micrococcus

  14. Bacillus Arrangements • Appearance • Single • Diplobacillus • Streptobacillus • Coccobacillus • Palisade (“V” link) • Division • One plane

  15. Spiral Arrangement • Vibrio • Slight curved • Vibrio cholera • Spirillum • Stiff • Campylobacter • Helicobacter • Spirochete • Flexible • Treponema (Syphilis) • Borrelia (Lyme Ds)

  17. Cell Wall Appendages • Glycocalyx (+/-) • Capsule • Slime Layer • S-layer • Surface proteins • Flagella • Fimbria • Pili

  18. Glycocalyx • Secreted by some bacteria • Produced inside • Extruded to outside • Aid in survivability • Aid in pathogenicity • Negatively charged • Composition • Polysaccharides (EPS) • Polypeptides • or Both

  19. Glycocalyx: Capsule • Organized repeating units • Thick • Firmly Attached • Function • Protect from desiccation and other environmental hazards • Evade host defenses via phagocytosis • Antigen: K

  20. Glycocalyx: Slime Layer • Unorganized • Thin • Loosely attached • Viscous • Water soluble • Function • Adherence • Protection • Trap nutrients • Form Biofilms

  21. S – Layer (Surface Layer) • Glycoprotein • Viscous • Thin • Organized in crystal lattice • Anchored to plasma membrane • Pores • Some G + and G – • Eubacteria • Archeae • Function • Strengthen and reinforce phospholipid bilayer • Adherence • Colonize • Resist flushing • Protection • Environment • Immune

  22. Biofims • Microbial community attached to surface • Resistance to • AB • Immune • Types • Environmental • Infectious • Dental Plaque • Endocarditis • Kidney Stones • CF

  23. Flagella • Appearance • 10 -20 micrometers • thin • Arrangement • Parts • Function

  24. Flagellar Arrangement • Monotrichous • Amphitrichous • Lophotrichous • Tuft • One or both poles • Peritrichous • Variations • Axial Filaments • Atrichous

  25. Flagella Examples • Monotrichous: • Pseudomonas aeruginosa • Amphitrichous: • Spirullum volutans • Lophotrichous: • E. coli • Peritrichous: • Proteus vulgaris

  26. Flagella Bacterial Swarm

  27. Endoflagellar Arrangement • Amphitrichous • Spiral around outer membrane sheath • Axial Filament rotation • Corkscrew motility • Spirochetes • Treponema (Syphilis) • Borrelia (Lyme’s disease)

  28. Flagella Anatomy: Exoflagella

  29. Gram Negative Flagellar Parts

  30. Flagellar Parts: Exoflagella • Filament • Flagellinchains in helix • Hollow core for repair • H protein antigen • E.coli O157:H7 • Hook • Protein coupling • L or curved shape • Function: rotation • Basal Body • Function: anchor • Central Protein Rod • Ringed protein structures • 4 rings for Gram Negative • 2 rings for Gram positive

  31. Flagellar Structure Mot proteins Fli proteins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey7Emmddf7Y

  32. Flagellar Stain • Special Stain • Determine • Presence • Number • Location • Stains used • Carbolfuscin • Pararosanaline • With mordants

  33. Flagellar Motility • Rotation • ATP pump • H+ • Na+ • Flagellar Motor • Stator: MotA, Mot B • Rotar: Fli proteins • Driven by proton Gradient [outside to inside cell] • -Taxis Movements • Stimulus: Photo- , Chemo- ; Negative vs. Positive • Clockwise = random movement [tumble] • Counterclockwise = forward movement [run]

  34. Motility Tests

  35. Flagella Summary • Function: Motility • Run vs Tumble • Phototaxis • Chemotaxis • Positive taxis • Negative taxis • Proteins allow for classification into groups called serovars: H antigen • Types • Endoflagella [spirochetes] • Exoflagella Arrangement • Monotrichous • Amphitrichous • Lophotrichous • Peritrichous • Anatomy • Filament • Hook • Basal body

  36. Pili • Pilin protein • Thin hollow tubes • Number • Average 1-2 per cell • Some have up to 10-100 • Glycoprotein or glycolipid tip • Length varies • Shorter: adherence • Longer: conjugation

  37. Pili Structure

  38. Conjugation (Sex or F) Pili Transfer DNA

  39. Fimbria • Gram Negative bacteria • Shorter than flagella aka “Short pili” • AA Protein: Fimbrilin • Sticky • Function • Adherence • Resist flushing • Biofilms

  40. Biofilms http://vimeo.com/30571458 • Attachment to surface of host tissue or other microbes • Cell to cell attachment • Production of extracellular polysaccharides [eps] • “Planktonic” colonization

  41. Bacterial Envelope • External Structures • Glycocalyx or S-layer • Fimbria/Pili/Flagella • Cell Wall • Shape • Osmotic Pressure • Protection • Periplasmic space • Enzymes • Nutrient processing
