Chapter 20 Viruses and Bacteria
2
Viruses-
3
What is a virus? Segments of nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat. Pathogens – cause disease Smaller than most cells
4
Viruses are Non-Living! What are the P PP Properties of Life? Made of cells, able to grow, reproduce, store DNA Viruses are: not made of cells cannot grow can only reproduce by infecting other cells Therefore VIRUSES ARE NOT LIVING
5
Viral Structure Protein coat = capsid DNA or RNA (inside capsid) Envelope = surrounds capsid (membrane) Glycoprotein- attaches (parts from host cell)
6
Lytic Cycle Virulent viruses – cause disease 1. Attach at receptor site 2. Injection of DNA 3. Host cell is taken over and forced to make new viruses 4. Host cell breaks open (lysis)
7
Lysogenic Cycle Temperate virus – doesn’t kill host cell immediately. 1. Virus attaches 2. Injects DNA 3. Viral DNA mixes with host DNA 4. Goes through divisions 5. Host cell undamaged
9
Viruses HIV Papovavirus Adenoviruses Herpesviruses Poxviruses Picornaviruses Myxoviruses Rhabdoviruses Retroviruses BSE CJD Chickenpox common cold measles mumps polio rabies Hepatitis Leukemia Liver cancer Burkitt’s Lymphoma Cervical cancer
10
Tobacco Mosaic Virus End of 19 th Century Tobacco mosaic disease 1935 Wendell Stanley extracted cause of disease (RNA and protein) Classified as viruses
11
HIV H uman I mmunodeficiency V VV V irus Causes AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) First: virus attaches to cell at receptors Second: trigger endocytosis (HIV fuses into cell)
12
Retroviruses: HIV
13
Papoviruses HPV
14
Adenoviruses Viral Conjunctivitis: with respiratory problems Keratoconjunctivitis
15
Herpesviruses Chickenpox / herpes simplex
16
Poxviruses
17
Myxoviruses Influenza A, B and C
18
Rabies Rhabdoriruses
19
measles, mumps
20
Common Cold- Rhinovirus
21
Polio
23
Bacteria
24
The Bacteria Domain Vs Eukarya Domain 7 Ways bacteria differ from eukaryotes No internal membranes Much smaller Single celled Circular DNA Binary Fission reproduction Flagella
25
Bacteria are classified and identified using characteristics: Cell Shape- cocci - round bacilli – rod spirillum - spiral Cell Wall Structure- 2 types Motility- flagellum, pili, slimy threads The bacteria domain
26
Gram Staining- process used to distinguish b/w each type of cell wall 2 types of bacteria cell walls 1. Composed mostly of peptidoglycan (Gram +) 2. Less peptidoglycan but additional outer membrane (Gram -) Cell Wall structure
27
Obtain Energy Photosynthesizers- 4 types (anaerobic) Cyanobacteria created atmosphere Chemoautotrophs- live in soil (nitrogen fixing) and remove inorganic matter Heterotrophs- decomposers (aerobic)
28
Good & Bad Bacteria Good streptomyces (antiboitics) Rhizobium (nitrogen fix on plants) Make cheese & clean industry Bad Pathogens! Disease causing
29
PProkaryotes that cause disease MMycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) SStreptococcus pyogenes (Strep throat) mmethicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Diversity of Prokaryotic Life
30
Biological Warfare Anthrax Tetanus- Scythian Archers Ebola-Peloponnesian War Smallpox- Native Americans The Plague- early 14 th century in Asia
31
Antibiotic Resistance Prevent virus with vaccine Treat bacterial infection with antibiotic Misuse- not finishing prescription Multiple-Resistance- treatment with more than 1 anti-biotic & Anti-bacterial soaps
32
Importance of Bacteria Food & Chemical Production Pickles, cheese, olives, vinegar, sourdough breads, yogurts etc Chemicals like acetone (nail polish remover) Environmental Uses Harvest copper or uranium Eat away at carbon based spills (oils)
