Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by two membrane bilayers separated by a space termed the periplasm. The periplasm is a multipurpose compartment separate from the cytoplasm. The periplasm has a distinct oxidizing environment that allow certain key protein structural features to be formed. Can you identify an amino acid(s) that would be affected by this oxidizing environment? How would it be affected, and what structural features would be sensitive to this environment? Can you discuss the implications of this from a standpoint of recombinant protein expression?
List and describe the three main types of cytoskeleton. If you wanted to do immunocytochemistry to specifically stain each type of cytoskeleton, what is a protein that could be used for each cytoskeletal type (in other words, what is a unique protein for each cytoskeletal type)?
One major difference in the envelope structure between gram positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria is the presence or absence of a cytoplasmic membrane. True or false?
Which of the following are TRUE of yeast? Yeast are Gram-positive cells.Yeast are Gram-positive cells. Yeast are Gram-negative cells.Yeast are Gram-negative cells. Yeast are neither Gram-positive or Gram-negative cells.Yeast are neither Gram-positive or Gram-negative cells. Yeast have a peptidoglycan cell wall.Yeast have a peptidoglycan cell wall. Yeast do not have a cell wall.
The three types of external bacterial appearances are _____________, _____________, and _____________.
Gram staining is a common technique used to differentiate two large groups of bacteria based on their different cell wall constituents. The Gram stain procedure distinguishes between Gram positive and Gram negative groups by coloring these cells red or violet. Gram positive bacteria stain violet due to the presence of a thick layer of peptidoglycan in their cell walls, which retains the crystal violet these cells are stained with. Alternatively, Gram negative bacteria stain red, which is attributed to a thinner peptidoglycan wall, which does not retain the crystal violet during the decoloring process - s. epidermidis a gram-positve coccus - E. coli a gram-negative bacillus - C. xerosis a gram-positive bacillus How does each organism fulfill a specific niche based on the information provided above?
In not more than three pages, describe the bacteria cell wall, hence differentiate between the gram positive and the gram negative bacteria with not less than five examples and the specific disease each of them causes.
For each salt concentration used in this exercise, indicate whether it represents an isotonic, hypotonic,or hypertonic environment for the bacterial cells.0.5% -----------5%-----------10%------------ 15%----------
Measure the length of Cell X using the ruler in Microsoft Word. Assuming the actual length to be 3 um, calculate the magnification. Show your complete solution. Based on Figure 1, what internal organization can be distinguished in cell X? Why? Based in Figure 1, can you see a limiting membrane? Can you deduce its presence? Why or why not? Figure 2 is an electron micrograph of the same type of bacterium as shown in Figure 1. The picture has been obtained by cutting a very thin section of the bacterial cell along its longitudinal axis. Measure the total length of the cell, and assuming the actual length to be 2.1 um, calculate the magnification. With reference with Figure 2, what are the major differences between the inclusions found in Figure 1 and the way they appear in Figure 2? What other structural features can be resolved?
Most medically useful antibiotics interfere with either peptidoglycan synthesis or ribosome function. Why would the cell membrane be a poor target for antimicrobial medication?
Describe facilitated diffusion, primary and secondary active transport, and group translocation in terms of their distinctive characteristics and mechanisms. What advantage does a bacterium gain by using active transport rather than facilitated diffusion?
The additional coverings that are found on top of the bacterial cell wall is collectively known as the
