Chapter 6-7-10-11-12-13 Flashcards
what are virion
virus particle made of DNA or RNA in protein coat
How do virus attach?
attachment is based on host cell receptors that bind to virus
How does virus infect host
- envelope fused with host cell membrane
- endocytosis in vessicle
- inject nucleic acid
virus synthesis
- Early protein takes over cell
- Late protein assemble virus (capsid)
how are virus release
- virus lyse host cell after being replicated (non-enveloped)
- incorporated into cell membrane and budd off in a process known as budding (enveloped)
virulent phage
lyse host cell after being made (lytic cycle)
temporate phage
has two option
1. act like virulent phage and lyse host cell
2. stays in host cell w/o destroying it (lysogenic cycle
lysogeny
incorporated into genome
lysogen
prophage stays in host cell and can change from lysogenic cycle to lytic cycle
Eukaryotic infection
- cytocidal-cell death (infection)
- persistant infection. asymptomatic
- cytopathic effect (CPE) cause degenerative change, abnormalities, and transformation of malignant cells
what does virus do in host cell
- bind to host cell to supress tumor suppressent protein
- carry oncogene into host and insert into host genome
- alter cell regulator by inserting promoter or enhancer next to cellular oncogene. which leads to loss regulation and abnormal cell growth
Plaque Essay
sample of dilution of virus on lawn of host cell to determine ID and LD at 50%
find the lower dose to cause infection or death
what are viroid
infectious agent of enclosed circular ssRNAs that do no encode gene product (gene silencing)
how doe viroid replicate
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase to reliplicate
What are virusoid
infectious agent of enclosed circular ssRNA that encode one or more gene product
how does virusoid replicate
requires a helper virus to replicate
Prion
cause degenerative disease in humans and animals
Type of disease caused by prions
- Scrapies (sheep)
- Bovine Encephalopathy disease (mad cow disease)
- Creutzfeldt-Jakob disesase and varient CJD (Humans)-from being exposed to prions by eating contaminated meat
- Chronic wasting disease (deer)
what is normal prion
PrPc
what is abnormal prion
PrPsc
How does prion infect
PrPsc enter the brain of host causing PrPc to change to PrPsc. the PrPsc then change the other PrPc. This cause apoptosis and neuron loss.
How do Eukaryotic reproduce
- sexual reproduction with the exception of yeast cells which undergo asexual reproduction.
- has 46 chromosomes known as diploid
How do prokaryote reproduce
- Binary fission and budding
- has one chromosome known as haploid
Bacterial cell cycle
2 pathway
1. replication
2. DNA partitioning (segregation) and cytokinesis
description of chromosome
circular, double stranded, and helical
where do replication begin
at the origin
where do replication end
at the terminus
replisome
protein at the origin that helps copy DNA
Sequence of replication
- replisome copy DNA
- DNA replication proceed in 2 direction from the origin
- origin moves to opposite ends of the cell
- replisome pushes daughter cell to opposite ends
- replisome attaches to MreB and follows the spiral shape causing the strand to separate.
MreB is similar to what in homolog
actin
plasmid
Genetic structure that replicates independently of the chromosome
E coli plasmid
- has 3 protein that ensures there’s a copy plasmid in each of the the cell during cytokinesis
ParM
filament. protein made grows in size pushing plasmid to opposite ends of cell
ParR and ParC
holds onto the origin of the plasmid and ParM and as ParM elongates, ensure plasmid is pushed to the end of the cell
septation
formation of cross wall between daughter cell
cytokinesis
formation of two daughter cell
separation of cytoplasm
step to septation formation
- z-ring assemble
2.cell wall assemble - constriction of cell
FtsZ
protein that makes up z-mesh work. forms a ring at the center of the cell on the inside of the cell membrane
Min CDE
- limit z-ring to center through oscillation.
- greater toward the two end of cell and decrease toward the center allowing z-ring to form.
- breaks FtsZ protein
Anchoring protein
links z-ring to membrane to create divisome
divisome
protein for division
how does FtsZ help with septation
cinch inward creating invagination
Autolysin
binds peptidoglycan and breaks it
after breaking it holds on to each end
as the cell sends out peptidoglycan in the form of NAM and NAG, and autolysin grabs them and attaches them to broken peptidoglycan. wall gets built around cinching cell membrane
bactoprenol complex
Takes NAM and NAG across membrane to new division site so it can be incorporated into the cell wall.
continuous culture
- grow bacteria in an open system known as chemostat
- resupply nutrients and take away waste
- kept at exponential (log) phase to create maximum production
extremophile
survive in harsh condition that kill most organism
Halophile
require NaCl of .2M
exteme halophile
2-6.2M salt stabilizes membrane.
acidophile
favor enviroment with pH of 0-5.5
neutrophile
favor environment with pH of 5.5-7
alkaliphile
favor environment with pH of 8.5-11.5
psychrophile
grow in temp of 0-20
psychrotroph
grow in temp of 0-35
mesophile
grow in temp of 20-45
thermophile
grow in temp of 55-85
hyperthermophile
grow in temp of 85-113
excessive oxygen cause what
toxic reactive oxygen species, which need protective enzyme
what are the protective enzyme produce by aerobic microbes
- superoxide dismutase
- catalase
- peroxidase
osmotolerant microbes
grow in a wide range of water activity
tolerate salt but grow slow in population
how do microbes survive if they can’t regulate internal cell temp
metabolize using enzymes
high temp denature enzyme
