Prokaryotic Classification EUBACTERIA (Bacteria) ARCHAEBACTERIA (Archaea) EUKARYOTES (Eukarya)
Prokaryotic Classification to ancestors of eukaryotic cells DOMAIN BACTERIA DOMAIN ARCHAE biochemical and molecular origin of life p.337
Eubacteria Most familiar bacteria fatty acids in plasma membrane Cell wall always includes peptidoglycan Classified based on metabolism
Eubacterial Diversity Photoautotrophic Aerobic (Cyanobacteria) Anaerobic (Green bacteria) Chemoautotrophic Chemoheterotrophic Largest group
Eubacterial Diversity Fig. 21-7a, p.338
Some Pathogenic Eubacteria Most are chemoheterotrophs Examples (you don’t need to write these) E. coli strains Clostridium botulinum Clostridium tetanus Borrelia burgdorferi Rickettsia rickettsii
Cyanobacteria example-Anabaena resting spore photo-synthetic cell heterocyst Fig. 21-8a, p.339
Some Pathogenic Eubacteria Clostridium tetani DNA spore coat capsule around cell wall Fig. 21-8d, p.339
Bacterial Behavior move toward what they need.. Examples (you don’t need to write these) Aerobes move toward oxygen; anaerobes avoid it Photosynthetic types move toward light Magnetotactic bacteria swim downward

Viral Multiplication - Basic Steps Attach to host cell Virus or Nucleic acid enters host Host incorporates viral Nucleic acid Host uses viral info to assemble new viral particles Release new viral particles
Lytic Pathway Fig. 21-15a, p.344
Lysis of host cell is induced; infectious particles escape. Lytic Pathway Tail fibers and other parts are added to coats. Virus particles bind to wall of suitable host. Viral genetic material enters cell cytoplasm. Viral protein molecules are assembled into coats; DNA is packaged inside. Viral DNA directs host machinery to produce viral proteins and viral DNA. Stepped Art Fig. 21.20 Page 358
Viral DNA usually becomes integrated into the bacterial chromosome. Lysogenic Pathway Viral DNA is excised from chromosome and cell enters lytic pathway. Prior to prokaryotic fission, the chromosome and integrated viral DNA are replicated. After binary fission, each daughter cell will have recombinant DNA. Stepped Art Fig 21.20 (2) Page 358
Replication of an Enveloped Virus DNA virus particle plasma membrane of host cell Transcription of viral DNA Replication of viral DNA Translation nuclear envelope some proteins for viral coat viral DNA other proteins for viral envelope Figure 21.16 Page 345
Evolution and Disease Host and pathogen coevolving pathogen kills too quickly, it might disappear along with the host Most dangerous if pathogen is… overwhelming in numbers in a novel host a mutant strain
Mycobacterium tuberculosis p.346a
SARS virus p.346b
New Threats Emerging Pathogens Drug-resistant strains Food poisoning Ebola virus Monkeypox virus SARS virus Drug-resistant strains Food poisoning E. coli Salmonella
