6 Size varies Shape varies Mobility varies Figure 28-13 Page 578
Small Large Compare relative sizes Size varies The sizes of bacteria and archaea vary. Mycoplasma cells (left) are about 0.5 µm in diameter, while Thiomargarita namibiensis cells (right) are about 150 µm in diameter. Shape varies The shapes of bacteria and archaea vary from rods such as Bacillus anthracis (left) and spheres to filaments or spirals such as Rhodospirillum. In some species, such as Streptococcus faecalis (right), cells attach to one another and form chains. Mobility varies A wide variety of bacteria and archaea use flagella (left) to power swimming movements. These cyanobacterial cells (right) move by gliding across a substrate.

7 Biology: What is Life? life study of Properties of Life
Cellular Structure: the unit of life, one or many Metabolism: photosynthesis, respiration, fermentation, digestion, gas exchange, secretion, excretion, circulation –processing materials and energy Growth: cell enlargement, cell number Movement: intracellular, movement, locomotion Reproduction: avoid extinction at death Behavior: short term response to stimuli Evolution: long term adaptation

8 Homeostasis - metabolism
Nutrition Mode Energy Source Carbon Source Photoautotroph Light CO2 Chemoautotroph Inorganic chem Photoheterotroph Organic chem Chemoheterotroph All of these nutritional modes are found among prokaryotes! Eukaryotes are not as diverse in their nutritional modes.

9 Photoautotrophs - photosynthesis
Ancient pathway, but not universal Cyanobacteria, Algae, Plants light CO2 + H2O  O2 + CH2O chlorophyll Purple-sulfur bacteria CO2 + H2S  S2 + CH2O

10 Cyanobacterial Vegetative Cell
cell wall mesosome cell membrane cyanophycean starch photosynthesis product cyanophycin vacuole lipid droplet polyphosphate granule thylakoids light reactions nucleoid cytosol polyhedral body Calvin cycle and starch synthesis RubisCO crystals! Prokaryotes do not have chloroplasts… they became chloroplasts!

11 Artificial coloration of TEM image
But thylakoids shown as green would be natural! The location of bacteriochlorophyll! For the light reactions… In a light microscope image: Thylakoids would not be visible, so green color would appear throughout cytosol with the nucleoid region lighter in color.

12 Figure 28.5 Page 572

13 Chemoautotrophs - N metabolism
Cyanobacteria, Rhizobium - N2 fixation H+ + ATP + N2  NH4+ Nitrosomonas - nitrification (forms nitrite) 2 CO2 + NH4+  NO CH2O Pseudomonas - denitrification 2 CH2O + 2 NO2-  N2 + 2 CO2 + 2 H2O Which of these processes is demonstrating chemoautotrophism?

14 Nitrosomonas - internal membranes use NH4+ electrons in an ETS to produce ATP ATP and protons used to reduce CO2 to CH2O

15 N O=O Rhizobium needs anaerobic conditions to convert N2 into NH4+
Legumes produce heme based molecules and rapid respiration to eliminate oxygen from root nodules that house the bacterium “symbiosis.” O=O N Chemical similarity between these two molecules results in competitive inhibition of nitrogen fixation by oxygen.

16 Photoheterotrophs - strange
Bacteria: Rhodospirillum, Rhodomicrobium Light C2H4O2-  2 CH2O spirilloxanthin

17 Chemoheterotrophs - common!
Escherichia coli and most eukaryotes…even plants! CH2O + O2  CO2 + H2O + ATP Carbohydrate, etc. provides both the energy source and the carbon source What is another chemoheterotrophic organism? Give the complete Latin binomial!

18 Chemoheterotrophy Aerobic Respiration CH2O + O2  CO2 + H2O
Glycolysis carbohydrate to pyruvate (in cytosol!) Citric Acid Cycle pyruvate to carbon dioxide (in cytosol or matrix) Electron Transport and Oxidative Phosphorylation (in mesosomes or cristae) CH2O + O2  CO2 + H2O Anaerobic Fermentation Glycolysis to pyruvate (in cytosol) Fermentive step(s) to return NAD+ to glycolysis (in cytosol) C6H12O6  C3H3O3-  C2H5OH + CO2 C6H12O6  C3H3O3-  H3CCHOHCOO- Notice how fermentation can produce gas or acids… These are just a few of the fermentive possibilities!

19 Cyanobacterial Vegetative Cell
I thought these were only photosynthetic?? cell wall mesosome electron transport sytem and oxidative phosphorylation cell membrane cyanophycean starch fuel for repiration cyanophycin vacuole lipid droplet fuel for repiration polyphosphate granule thylakoids If its metabolism is facultative and the organism is in anaerobic conditions… nucleoid cytosol polyhedral body glycolysis and Krebs cycle fermentation steps Prokaryotes do not have mitochondria… they became mitochondria!

20 Archaea have Homeostasis
Facultative (can do both, but one better than another) and Obligate (strictly just one or the other) Anaerobes and Aerobes Nutrition Mode Energy Source Carbon Source Photoautotroph Light CO2 Chemoautotroph Inorganic chem Photoheterotroph Organic chem Chemoheterotroph Photoautotrophs use Calvin Cycle (Pyrococcus) Chemoautotroph use reverse TCA to fix CO2 and sulfur transporters used drive ATP synthesis Chemoheterotroph citric acid cycle, fermentation

31 Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
75°C Optimum Obligate aerobe pH 1 to 6 Oxidize Sulfur or can use Fe2+ or MnO42- as electron acceptors…uses glycolysis and TCA cycle (same path we have, but in a very different environment)

32 √ Which of these metabolic pathways is Sulfolobus demonstrating?

33 How do Archaea tolerate the heat?
Proteins stabilized by more ionic bridges between amino acid r-groups and more-hydrophobic core amino acids Heat shock protein (chaperonins) refold denatured proteins…Pyrococcus 121°C for 1 hour! DNA depurination reduced by presence of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. DNA supercoiling by reverse gyrase reduces denaturation Sac7d in Sulfolobus is a minor groove protein increases the DNA melting temperature by 40°C Histone-like proteins help stabilize DNA as well Heat-resistant di-bi-phytanyl diether lipid membranes (monolayer) prevent delamination of membrane

34 Cell Membrane Structure
Composed of diglycerides R group may be phosphate, sulfate, or sugar Long chain branched hydrocarbon (not fatty acid) Hydrocarbons may be C20 or C40 If C20, the membrane is a bilayer: O R If C40, the membrane is a monolayer: O R In some species, the membrane is a mixture of both C20 and C40 diglycerides forming a mixed mono-/bi-layer. The C40 diglycerides prevent the bi-layer from de-laminating!
