BACTERIAL DNA
• One circular chromosome packed to ”nucleoid”
• Plasmids: smaller circular DNA structures
• Genome size: 0.5 to 6 Mb (500 to 6000 genes)
- extrachromosomal DNA
- multiple copy number- genes for antibiotic-resistance- genes encoding toxins- multiply independently of cell division

Cytoplasmic membrane
• Lipid bilayer • Semipermeable barrier• No sterols
Contains:• Structural proteins• Transport proteins• Electron transport system• Enzymes• Ion pumps• Flagellum anchor

CYTOPLASM
Cell wall• rigid, protecting cell from osmotic lysis
• made up of PEPTIDOGLYCAN
Cell membrane
Bacteria have no inner cytoskeletonCell wall = outer skeleton

Fluid Mosaic model (by Singer and Nicholson) of bacterial membrane structure
(under EM) Most of these proteins have one or more trans membrane (TM) segments,
and they interact closely with nearby lipids as well as other proteins. In addition, there
are peripheral membrane proteins that associate at the surface of the membrane and
lipid anchored proteins that are held into the membrane by covalently attached fatty
acids or lipids. hydrophilic moieties are always on the portions of glycoproteins and
glycolipids external to the membrane bilayer.

IMPLICATIONS OF GRAM REACTION
• Diagnostically useful
• LPS in G- and TA in G+ activate complement &
are important for pathogenicity
• Sensitivity to antibiotics, lysozyme, complement

Flagella and Motility
• Size-20 nm across and up to 15 to 20m long.
• Monotrichous-single and located at one end
• Amphitrichous- single flagellumat each pole
• Lophotricous-cluster of flagella at one or both ends
• Peritrichous-spread over the whole surface
• Flagella can rotate at rates as fast as 40 to 60 revolutions per second.

Flagella and Motility
• The mechanism of flagellar movement appears to be rotation; the hook and helical structure of the flagellum causes the flagellum to act as a propeller, thus driving the bacterium through its watery environment
• Counterclockwise rotation causes forward motion (called a run)
• Clockwise rotation disrupts forward motion (resulting in a tumble)

21
FLAGELLA = locomotory organelles• project as long strand(s) from bacterial surface• embedded in cytoplasmic membrane• flagellin (protein) subunits• hollow tubular structure•move bacteria by propeller like action

Chemotaxis
• Chemotaxis is directed movement of bacteria either towards a chemical attractant or away from a chemical repellent
• The concentrations of these attractants and repellents are detected by chemoreceptors in the surfaces of the bacteria
• Directional travel toward a chemoattractant (biased random walk toward attractant) is caused by lowering the frequency of tumbles (twiddles), thereby lengthening the runs when traveling up the gradient, but allowing tumbling to occur at normal frequency when traveling down the gradient
• Directional travel away from a chemorepellent (biased random walk away from repellent) involves similar but opposite responses
• The mechanism of control of tumbles and runs is complex, involving numerous proteins and several mechanisms (conformation changes, methylation, and phosphorylation) to modulate their activity;
• despite this complexity chemotaxis is fast, with responses occurring in as little as 200 meters/second

23
AXIAL FILAMENTS
• spirochetes, e.g., Treponema pallidum• similar function to flagella• run lengthwise along the cell• snake-like movement
080506 Möllby
24
Pili = Fimbriae
• Short hair-like projections
• Aid in adhesion to host epithelium (e.g. cornea)
• Special (longer) F-pili for conjugation
080506 Möllby
25
CAPSULE AND SLIME LAYER
• outside cell envelope
• ”capsule” well defined
• ”slime layer” or ”glycocalyx” not so defined
• usually polysaccharides
• often lost in vitro
• protective in vivo (important virulence factor)
080506 Möllby
26
Encapsulated bacteria are less well phagocytosed

27
BACTERIAL CELL DIVISION
Binary fission
• Chromosome attaches to membrane• DNA is replicated• Cell membrane + envelope invaginate• Daughter cells separate
NOTE:Plasmids replicate independently

BACTERIAL METABOLISM IN RELATION TO OXYGEN
Aerobic
Anaerobic
Facultative
Microaerophilic
Obligate aerobes require molecular oxygen
Obligate (strict) anaerobes can not grow in presence of oxygen
Facultative anaerobes grow both with and without oxygen (most bacteria)
Prefer reduced amount of oxygen

SPORE FORMATION
Triggered at adverse conditions, such as lack of nutrients,dryness, heat, etc.
15% of the spore’s dry
weight consists of dipicolinic
acid complexed with
calcium ions. Calcium
dipicolinate stabilizes DNA
at high temperature

31
WHAT IS A BACTERIAL SPORE?
•Dormant state designed for long-term survival
• Contains the whole genome
• Germinates when life
looks better again
•Contains calcium bound to dipicolinic acid
