Size of Bacteria• Average bacteria 0.5 - 2.0 um in diam.
– RBC is 7.5 um in diam.
• Surface Area ~12 um^2• Volume is ~4 um• Surface Area to Volume is 3:1• Typical Eukaryote Cell SA/Vol is 0.3:1• Food enters through SA, quickly reaches
all parts of bacteria• Eukaroytes need structures & organelles

Flagella• Motility - movement
• Swarming occurs with some bacteria– Spread across Petri Dish– Proteus species most evident
• Arrangement basis for classification– Monotrichous; 1 flagella– Lophotrichous; tuft at one end– Amphitrichous; both ends– Peritrichous; all around bacteria
• Observe Picture in Micro Lab.

Basic Characteristics of Bacteria
• Storage “granules” - cytoplasm• When important nutrient sources are in “excess”
• Carbon often stored as lipid (Poly-β-hydroxybuteric acid)
• Inorganics (e.g., sulfur, iron) - most appear granular under light microscope
![Page 10: Structure and Function of Bacterial Cells BIOT 309 2012 Oct. 10, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5697c0191a28abf838cce803/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Basic Characteristics of Bacteria
• Fimbriae (plural, fimbria is singular)• Important in attachment to eukaryotic cell surfaces
• Can contribute to pathogenesis if attachment is needed to initiate tissue damage
![Page 11: Structure and Function of Bacterial Cells BIOT 309 2012 Oct. 10, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5697c0191a28abf838cce803/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Basic Characteristics of Bacteria
• Flagella (plural, singular is flagellum)
• Polar and peritrichous locations
• Enable flagellated bacteria to move (motility) – HOW??

Pili• Short protein appendages
– smaller than flagella
• Adhere bacteria to surfaces– E. coli has numerous types– Antibodies to pili block adherence
• F-pilus; used in conjugation– Exchange of genetic information
• Flotation; increase boyancy– Pellicle (scum on water)– More oxygen on surface

Chapter 4
Capsule or Slime Layer• Capsule – tightly bound to cell
• Slime Layer – loosely bound to cell
• Glycocalyx - Polysaccharide on external surface
• Adhere bacteria to surface– S. mutans and enamel of teeth
• Prevents Phagocytosis– Complement can’t penetrate sugars

Cell Wall • Peptidoglycan Polymer (amino acids +
sugars)

Structure and Function• Cell Wall• peptidoglycan - imparts some rigidity
• Sugar backbone - NAG & NAMA
• (Human lysozyme cleaves β(1,4) bond)
• Amino acid cross links – adds more rigidity
• Peptidoglycan layer thickness
![Page 22: Structure and Function of Bacterial Cells BIOT 309 2012 Oct. 10, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5697c0191a28abf838cce803/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cell Wall
• Gram positive – thicker peptidoglycan layer (includes teichoic acids)
• Gram negative – thinner peptidoglycan layer (has an outer “membrane-like” layer)
![Page 23: Structure and Function of Bacterial Cells BIOT 309 2012 Oct. 10, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5697c0191a28abf838cce803/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Gram-negative cell wall
• Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) component of outer membrane
• Can be involved in certain pathologies
![Page 24: Structure and Function of Bacterial Cells BIOT 309 2012 Oct. 10, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5697c0191a28abf838cce803/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Gram-negative cell wall lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
• Phagocytes normally engulf and destroy pathogens, dead body cells and tissues
• LPS stimulates phagocytes to overproduce inflammatory cytokines– Phagocytes indiscriminately destroy healthy cells and tissues
– Severe inflammation & tissue damage (disease)
• LPS is called an “endotoxin” when it has this affect
