Microbio - Chap 6

QuestionAnswer
diplo is? pairs
staphylo is? clusters
strepto is? chains
3 forms of bacterial appendages flagella, pili, fimbriae
organized glycocalex and disorganized? capsule, slime layer
2 components of cell envelope? cell wall, cell membrane
bacterial cytoskeleton made of? actin
flagella are made of chains of what? flagellin
flagella are attached to what kind of hook? a protein hook
flagella is anchored to the wall and membrane by what? basal body
peritrichous flagella? all over
monotrichous/polar flagella? one polar flagellum
lophotrichous/polar flagella? multiple at one pole
amphitrichous/polar flagella? through spirochete, comes out both sides
atrichous flagella? NONE
how do flagella move? rotate
how do bacteria move? run and tumble
taxis move towards or away from stimuli
flagella proteins are what kind of antigen? H antigen
endoflagella, found where, how does it move the bacterium? axial filaments, in spirochetes, anchored at one end and rotation causes cell to move
is pili used for motility? NO
sex pilus forms what apparatus? conjugation apparatus
what is transfered through pili? plasmids
what kind of bacteria have pili? GRAM NEGATIVE
how many basal bodies do gram POSITIVE bacteria have? (flagella) 2
how many basal bodies do gram NEGATIVE bacteria have? (flagella) 4
fimbriae for motility? NO
what does fimbriae do? tight adhesion
many fimbriae can lead to? biofilms
glycocalyx is where compared to the cell wall? outside cell wall
slime layers help what? adherence
capsules prevent what? phagocytosis
Streptococcus pneumoniae capsule, +
Haemophilus influenzae b capsule, -
Neisseria meningitidis capsule, -
Neisseria meningitidis uses what? FIMBRIAE
all 3 capsules have 3 things? all enter through respiratory tract, all cause meningitis, all have vaccines
where is Haemophilus influenzae b? daycare/family settings
where is Neisseria meningitidis? crowded- college dorms, milirary barracks
meningitis, diagnosed how? infection/inflammation of membranes covering brain & spinal cord, spinal tap
slime layers and capsules are made up of? polysaccharides
slime layers protect the loss of what 2 things? water, nutrients
cell wall prevents what? lyse
bacterial cell walls are made of? PEPTIDOGLYCAN
arhaea cell walls are made of? PSEUDOMOREIN
peptidoglycan is a polymer of? dissacharide= NAG and NAM
peptidoglycan in gram POSITIVE bacteria is linked by? polypeptides
gram NEGATIVE bacteria has what in its upper membrane? lipid A
lipid A produces what? endotoxin, making it very virulent
gram positive cell wall contains what unique substance? teichoic acids
gram negative cell walls have what in their periplasm? digestive enzymes
2 types of teichoic acid? lipoteichoic, wall teichoic
lipoteichoic acid links to what? plasma membrane
wall teichoic acid links to what? peptidoglycan
gram positive cell walls may regulate the movement of what? cations
polysaccharides of gram positive cell walls provide what kind of variation? antigenic variation
gram negative outer membrane composed of 3 things lipopolysaccharides, lipoproteins, phospholipids
gram negative outer membrane protects from 2 things phagocytes, antibiotics
gram NEGATIVE outer membranes have what kind of antigen? O polysaccharide antigen
porins form channels through outer membrane
gram stain order crystal violet, iodine, alcohol, safranin
what happens to alcohol + gram positive? peptidoglycan dehydrates
what happens to alcohol + gram negative? alcohol dissolves outer membrane and leaves holes in peptidoglycan
gram POSITIVE is sensitive to what? (2) penicillin, lysozyme
gram NEGATIVE is sensitive to what? (1) tetracycline
endotoxin leads to what (2) septic shock, fever
acid fast cell was are similar to weak what? weak gram negative
acid fast cells have what unique acid bound to peptidoglycan? waxy lipid, mycolic acid
acid fast cells like water? NO, waxy lipids
Streptococcus mutans slime layer
Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid fast
Mycobacterium leprae acid fast
how many cells needed to have primary tuberculosis? 10
secondary tuberculosis also called (2) consumption, latent tuberculosis (reactivation)
how long can tuberculosis bacteria remain dormant? weeks, months, years
difference of tubercules in primary and secondary? p= alveolar macrophages phagocytize cells. s= tubercules filled with bacteria expand & drain into bronchial tubes
extrapulmonary tuberculosis outside lung infection
Lepromatous leprosy dysmorphic parts are bilateral
Tuberculoid leprosy skin lesions few, peripheral nerve involvement is severe
can Mycobacterium leprae grow in a lab? NO
