I. Griffith and Transformation (1928)
A. Griffith needed to know which bacteria caused pneumonia so he could to develop vaccine. B. He isolated 2 strains of bacteria 1. Smooth/encapsulated bacteria 2. Rough/non-encapsulated bacteria
3
C. Experiment: He isolated both strains and injected them into mice.
1. Smooth bacteria- injected into mice 2. Rough bacteria- injected into mice mice die IS THERE A WAY TO KILL BACTERIA? mice live
4
Which bacteria strain causes pneumonia ____________
Which bacteria strain that does not cause pneumonia _______________ Smooth Bacteria Rough Bacteria
5
3. Heat killed smooth bacteria- injected into mice
4. Mixed heat killed smooth bacteria with rough bacteria- injected into mice mice live mice die X X
6
5. Conclusion: The rough (harmless) strain of bacteria had been transformed into the smooth (disease-causing) strain. A transformation had occurred. 6. Griffith thought the transforming factor might be a gene.
