vertical gene transfer
occurs during reproduction between generation of cells
Horizontal gene transfer
the transfer of genes between cells of the same generation
-one bacterium donates DNA to a recipient bacterium
Genetic Recombination
Exchange of genes between two DNA molecules
-crossing over occurs when two chromosomes break and rejoin
Transformation
bacteria pick up "naked" DNA in the enviroment. and Bacillus,Haemophilus, Neisseria,Acinetobacter,Streptococcus, Staphylococcus they transform naturally-competent
Genetic transformation
Bacteria pick up naked DNA in the enviroment
conjugation
genetic material transferred from one bacterium to another through contact and in gram (-) bacteria plasmid usually carries genes for the construction of a sex pillus
gram (+) produce sticky surface molecules
What is this picture showing?
Bacterial Conjugation
This is showing which form of transfer and bacterium?
Conjugation of E. Coli
transduction
bacterial DNA transferred from a donor cell to a recipient cell inside a bacteriophage
bacteriophage
virus that infects bacteria
Steptococcus pyogenes causes what?
scarlet fever and has a red color the (enthrogenic toxin)
Transduction by...?
Bacteriophage
E. coli is found naturally in the human large intestine, and there it is beneficial. However, the strain designated E. coli O157:H7 produces Shiga toxin. How did E. coli acquire this gene from Shigella?
transduction
Plasmids
self replicating,gene-containing circular pieces of DNA
This is showing what?
Repair(these enzymes are powered by light) of DNA
Bacterial chromosomes are what shape?
circular
UV light is a form of ...?
mutagenic radiation
Direct UV light on DNA can cause...?
the formation of harmful covalent bonds between certain bases
Photolyases
known also as light repair enzymes use visiable light energy to separate the dimer back to the original two thymines.
Nucleotide excision repair
not restricted to UV-induced damage;it can repair mutations from other causes as well.
