19.1 Bacteria

Come in many shapes and sizes

Most common microorganisms are prokaryotes

Average size of 1-5 micrometers– Compared to eukaryotic cells that are 10-100

micrometers in diameter

Page 4: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

2 Branches of Bacteria (Domains)

Archebacteria (similar to early Earth)– Confined to extreme environments – Methanogens - reduce CO2 to CH4

– Extreme halophiles - salt loving– Thermoacidophiles– Similar to early earth– More closely related to eukaryotes than to

modern bacteria Eubacteria (most modern)

– very diverse

Prokaryotic Phylogeny

Page 7: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Prokaryotic & Eukaryotic Cells

Page 8: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Classifying Prokaryotes

Eubacteria– Largest prokaryote Domain– Lack nuclei– Cell wall of a carbohydrate- Peptidoglycan– Cell membrane around cytoplasm– Some have an extra cell wall on the outside to resist

damage

Page 9: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Classifying Prokaryotes

Archaebacteria– Lack nuclei– Have cell walls without

peptidoglycan– Are chemically different

from Eubacteria– Many live in extremely

harsh environments

Page 10: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Bacteria Shapes

Page 11: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Identifying Prokaryotes

Shapes– Bacilli- Rod shaped– Cocci- Spherical shaped– Sprilla- spiral shaped

Colorized SEM 9,000 Colorized SEM 12,000

Page 12: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Identifying Prokaryotes

Cell walls– Gram staining used to tell them apart

– Gram+ bacteria look purple

– Gram- bacteria look pink

Page 13: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

The Bacterial Cell Wall

Instead of cellulose, contain peptidoglycan– A polymer of modified sugars cross-linked

with amino acids The gram stain distinguishes many

disease causing bacteria based on the type of cell wall

Many antibiotics work by attacking the bacterial cell wall

Page 14: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Gram (+) Purple– accept gram stain– have simpler cell walls with large amounts of

peptidoglycan Gram (-) Pink

– do not stain– have more complex cell walls with less

peptidoglycan– cell walls contain lipopolysaccharides– are more likely to be pathogenic (cause disease)– more resistant to antibiotics

Identifying Prokaryotes

Movement– Flagella

– Lash, snake or spiral forward

– They do not move at all

Page 18: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

About half are capable of directional movement.

3 mechanisms:– flagella - different from eukaryotes– spiral shaped bacteria (spirochetes) have a

filament that spirals around the cell under the outer sheath

– some bacteria secrete slimy chemicals & glide Taxis

– movement toward or away from a stimulus– many bacteria exhibit this form of movement

Metabolic Diversity

Heterotrophs– Chemoheterotrophs: must take in organic molecules

for energy and carbon

– Photoheterotrophs: Use sunlight for energy but need organic compounds for a carbon source

Page 22: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Metabolic Diversity

Autotrophs– Chemoautotrophs: perform chemosynthesis to

make carbon from carbon dioxide. Does not require sunlight

– Photoautotrophs: use light to convert carbon dioxide and water into carbon compounds and oxygen gas.

Page 23: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Getting Energy

Bacteria need a constant supply of energy

Obligate aerobes- require constant supply of oxygen

Obligate anaerobes- need no oxygen, for some oxygen will kill it

Facultative anaerobes- survive with or with out oxygen

Page 24: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Growth and Reproduction

Binary fission (to split)

Conjugation

Spore formation

Page 25: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Binary Fission

Page 26: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Bacterial Conjugation

Page 27: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Some bacteria form resistant cells called endospores (11,000 year old spores found)

Resist extremes of temperature, pH, etc.

Endospores (example: Anthrax)

Page 28: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Importance of Bacteria

Only a minority cause disease Many are essential to life on earth Decomposers

– Break down dead matter Nitrogen Fixers

– Converts nitrogen into a form plants can use Humans use Bacteria Often live in symbiotic relationships with other

organisms

Page 29: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

19.2 Viruses

What is a virus?– Particles of nucleic acid and proteins

– Core made up of DNA or RNA surrounded by a capsid

– Need to infect a

living host to reproduce

Are Viruses Alive?

Viruses contain nucleic acids & proteins Viruses, by themselves, cannot make or use

food, grow or reproduce Some scientists believe viruses were never

independently living organisms Others believe viruses evolved from simple

bacteria like mycoplasmas & rickettsiae Another hypothesis: viruses are genes that have

escaped from the genomes of living cells Not much evidence to support any one of these

Page 33: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Viral Infection

Lytic Cycle– Virus attaches to host cell– Injects its DNA– Host makes RNA from viral DNA– Cell begins to make copies of virus– New viruses form– Host cell bursts

Page 34: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Lytic Cycle of the T4 Phage

Page 35: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Viral Infection

Lysogenic Cycle– Virus attaches to host cell– Injects DNA– Viral DNA incorporates itself into the host DNA– Viral DNA can be dormant– Once it becomes active, it follows the 4 processes in

the lytic cycle

Page 44: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Virus-like Particles (Viroids)

Viroids- single stranded RNA molecule with no capsid– They cause diseases in plants

– Infect cell and produce more viroids by disrupting the plant metabolism

Page 45: Bacteria and Viruses Chapter 19. Bacteria & Viruses

Virus-like Particles (Prions)

Prions- contain only protein; no DNA or RNA– They cause diseases in animals and humans

– Prions clump and cause normal protein to clump with it- creating new prions
