2 INTRODUCTION WHAT ARE MICROORGANISMS? Seen only under the microscope Usually unicellular

3 INTRODUCTION WHAT ARE MICROORGANISMS? PROKARYOTES: –No nucleus –No organelles (mitochondria, chloroplast, Golgi, etc.) EUKARYOTES: –Nucleus –Organelles –Internal membrane system

17 3.Bacteria are microscopic. Bacteria usually range in size from 0.2 µm (10 -6 m) to 50 µm.

18 A giant bacterium has however been isolated and it measure 0.6 mm in length (600 µm)!

19 Thiomargarita namibiensis More recently (1997) this bacteria measuring 750 µm (0.75 mm) in diameter was found!

23 4.Bacteria are everywhere Temperature range: -2  C to 95  C pH range: 2 to 9 Presence or absence of oxygen High salt concentrations High sugar concentrations

29 6.Bacterial structures

30 1.Capsule: slimy layer, consisting of polysaccharide and water surrounding many cells. Also called slime coat, extra cellular layer, glycocalyx, etc. Difficult to stain, since it is mostly water.

31 6.Bacterial structures 2.Cell Wall: rigid layer surrounding the bacterial cell. Made of peptidoglyan in Bacteria ( other materials in Archaea ). Porous to movement of small molecules.

32 6.Bacterial structures 3. Cell Membrane: flexible, semi-permeable barrier with lipid center that controls diffusion in and out of cell.

33 6.Bacterial structures 4.Cytoplasm: the fluid-filled space inside the cell. Contains hundreds of different enzymes, along with ribosomes, DNA, RNA, and a "pool" of millions of small molecules and ions.

34 6.Bacterial structures 5.Ribosomes: particles made of protein and RNA, sites of protein assembly. Ribosomes may occupy 25% of the volume of a typical bacterial cell.

35 6.Bacterial structures 6. Cell Chromosome: the DNA of a cell, normally a single circular molecule that is tightly supercoiled and packed inside the cell. Actively dividing cells may contain 2 or even 4 copies of this chromosome, replicated and ready for dividing among future daughter cells.

36 6.Bacterial structures 7. Flagella: -Associated with motility - Complex structure: several proteins anchored in cell wall and membrane. - Only one type of protein: flagellin. - Rotates at expense of proton motive force, which drive the flagellar motor.

37 6.Bacterial structures 8. Endospore: - Highly resistant differentiated bacterial cell - Produced by certain types of Bacteria. - Formation => dehydrated spore coat - Contains: calcium dipicolinate and small soluble acid proteins, absent from vegetative cells. - Can remain dormant indefinitely - Germinate quickly when appropriate trigger is applied.

39 7. Bacterial multiplication Bacterial growth: increase in the number of cells rather than an increase in the size of individual cells. Multiplication of most bacterial cells occurs by binary fission.

40 Cell Growth and Binary Fission Cell growth: > 2000 chemical reactions Small molecules => polymers => macromolecules => Cell structures - Elongation of cell - Duplication of DNA - Septum formation - Separation of two daughter cells
