Cytoplasm * DNA chormosome * Plasmids * 常於革蘭氏陰性菌`Gram(-)`找到 * 並非細菌生存必須 * <font color = "red">provide a selective advantage</font> * mRNA * <font color = "red">transcription and translation are coupled</font> * Ribosome * 30s + 50s -> 70s --- ### 2. Cytoplasmatic membrane * lipid bilayer * ==no steroids== > <font color = "red">mycoplasmas</font> are exception * Involves electron transport and energy production --- ### 3. Cell wall * Gram(+) * Peptidoglycan (胜肽聚醣) > <font color = "blue">Lysozyme</font> can degrade peptidoglycan > <font color = "red">Protoplast</font> (原生質體): 缺乏細胞壁(peptidoglycan)的**陽性菌** * <font color = "red">Teichoic acid</font> (胞壁酸) * <font color ="blue">Covalently linked</font> to the pepdioglycan * important factor in <font color = "red">virulence</font>(毒性) * <font color = "red">Lipoteichoic acid</font> (脂胞壁酸) * anchored in the cytoplasmatic membrane * initiate endotoxic-like activities(毒性較弱) > Teichoic acid and Lipoteichoic acid >> are common surface Ag -> **bacterial serotype** >> can promote attachment (**adherence**) >> ![Gram(+) cell wall](https://i.imgur.com/2PTJFN9.png "Gram(+) cell wall" =400x) * Gram(-) * **Thin** peptidoglycan layer > no techoic acid or lipotechoic acid * Periplasmic space > contain transport system, metabolites and hydrolytic enzymes > many are <font color = "blue">lytic (溶血的) virulence factors</font> * <font color = "red">Porin protein</font> (膜孔蛋白) > allow the diffusion of **hydrophilic** molecules * Outer membrane: ==asymmetric bilayer== * inner leaflet: phospholipid * outer leaflet: <font color = "red">Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)</font> `endotoxin` > attached to the peptidoglycan by **lipoprotein links** > held together by **divalent cation** (陽離子)(Mg^2+^, Ca^2+^) >> can be disrupted by antibiotics or EDTA >> <font color = "red">pheroplasts</font> (球形質體): 缺乏細胞壁(peptidoglycan)的**陰性菌** >> ![Gram(-) cell wall](https://i.imgur.com/E4UwfFS.png "Gram(-) cell wall" =350x) * Biosythesis * Peptidoglycan synthesis: Disaccharides -> polysaccharide -> polysaccharide chains -> Peptidoglycan * Disaccharides: N-acetylglucosamine (==GlcNAc==, NAG, G) & N-acetylmuramic acid (==MurNAc==, NAM, M) * polysaccharide chains -> Peptidoglycan cross-linking reaction: transpeptidation ![Peptidoglycan synthesis](https://i.imgur.com/RoyGSQX.png "Peptidoglycan synthesis") > <font color="red">Transpeptidase/penicillin binding proteins(PBP)</font> can inhibit cross-linking > => antibiotics > * Gram(+) peptidoglycan component A <font color="red">pentaglycine bridge (gly5)</font> expands the cross-link * Gram(-) peptidoglycan component <font color="red">Diaminopimelic acid</font> is directly linked to the terminal alanine of another chain ![peptidoglycan component](https://i.imgur.com/7zvQlPb.png "left: Gram(+); right: Gram(-)") * Overview ![Peptidoglycan synthesis](https://i.imgur.com/Xa8aUyD.png "Peptidoglycan synthesis" =500x) * Teichoic acid synthesis > connect by **phosphate** > The nature of the modification can define the **serotype** of the bacteria. > * Lipopolysaccharide synthesis * one ==Lipid A== (<font color="red">endotoxin activity</font>) * one ==polysaccharide core== unit * many repeats of ==O antigen== ![Lipopolysaccharide](https://i.imgur.com/N0f0MIj.png "Lipopolysaccharide" =250x) --- ### 4. External Structures * Capsule (夾膜): bacteria are closely surrounded by ==loose polysaccharide or protein layers== * Slime layer (黏液層): loosely adherent and non-uniform in density and thickness * <font color="red">glycocalyx(醣膠層)</font> > Exception: <font color="red">B.anthracis (炭疽桿菌)</font>: produce ==polypeptide== capsule > =>十分堅硬,染劑無法染進去 * unnecessary for the growth of bacteria but are important for <font color="red">survival in the host</font> > 有時在培養盤上養的細菌就無莢膜,因為沒有生長壓力 * <font color="red">poorly antigenic, antiphagocytic, a major virulence factor, promote adhesion</font> > =>幫助細菌於宿主體內生長 * Biofilm (菌膜) * polysaccharide * protect bacterial <font color="red">from antibiotics and host defenses</font> * ex: Pseudomonus aeruginosa; 綠膿桿菌 --- ### 5. Flagella(鞭毛) * Ropelike propellers * Provide motility for bacteria * allowing the cell to swim(==chemotaxis==) * Four types of arrangement * Monotrichous (一端有單鞭毛) * Amphitrichous (二端有鞭毛) * Lophotrichous (一端有束鞭毛) * Peritrichous (周身有鞭毛) --- ### 6. Fimbriae (纖毛)(pili;線毛) * Promote ==adherence== to other bacterial or to the host > 像是魔鬼氈 > for colonization and infection > adhesin (黏附素); lectin (凝集素); evasins (逃避素); aggressin (攻擊素) * F pili (<font color="red">sex pili</font>) * promote the ==transfer of large segments of bacterial chromosomes== between bacteria --- ### 7. Spores (芽胞) * 僅存在<font color="red">Gram(+)</font> ex: ==Bacillus==(桿菌類), ==Clostridium==(梭狀菌屬) * 對抗惡劣環境,從生長狀態(vegetative state)變成冬眠狀態(dormant state) * 高濃度的==dipicolinic acid==與==calcium==結合,產生很硬的結構
